About

You are Faith. The last of your kind. The epilogue to an age-old tale of demise. You gamble for your life against Death itself. Day after day after day. Yet you persevere. You dare not abandon hope. You struggle against your inevitable fall into despair. To live – and play – another day.

Faith in Despair is a grimdark roguelike deckbuilder that allows you to create your own cards using triggers, actions and modifiers to concoct devastating synergies. Every run holds new dangers and every action will inevitably push you closer towards despair.

FIND YOUR PATH TO PREVAIL

  • Forge your cards: Collect triggers, actions and modifiers and define the abilities of your creatures and spells.

  • Shape your deck: Formulate your strategy and devise devastating synergies to level the legions of Death.

  • Give in to despair: Spells you cast and creatures you raise push you deeper into despair and put curses on you.

  • Explore your own path: Follow Faith's journal, reveal her story and unlock new starter decks to challenge Death.
