About



"Once Upon a Rogue's Tale” combines strategic roguelike deckbuilding with the luck of the dice. Roll the dice and trade them in battle to play your cards. Dice also allow you to unleash powerful character abilities to your advantage.



Out of combat, you'll encounter events that will confront you with tough decisions. The choices you make will affect how the story unfolds, which will be written down in your personal storybook.

The fairytale worlds have mixed...Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk and The Frog Prince find themselves in an adventurous tangle of fairytales. Choose one of the classic characters, make your own decisions and influence the course of the story. Team up with strong allies and collect magical items to help you on your way through the colorful fairytale world.

Strategical deepness through positioningPositioning is especially important in battles with multiple opponents and adds strategic depth to the game.

Your actions determine the fate of the fairytale characters and blur the lines between friend and foe.
