FAQ

Roguebook — a deckbuilder from the creator of Magic: The Gathering

Roguebook is a roguelike deckbuilder where you quite literally write your own story across the pages of a living book. It was made by Abrakam Entertainment (the team behind Faeria) together with publisher Nacon, and the design was shaped with the help of Richard Garfield — the creator of Magic: The Gathering. The game launched on June 17, 2021, and it remains one of the most distinctive takes on the deckbuilder genre. Here you buy a global Steam key: activate it and the full game lands in your library for good.

Two heroes, one deck

Roguebook's signature twist is that you control not one character but a duo of heroes at the same time. You pick from six heroes, each with their own collection of over 50 cards, a personal relic and a unique skill tree. Position matters in battle: the hero in front soaks damage and deals it, while the one in the back stockpiles resources and sets up combos. Swapping them mid-fight is a tactical layer of its own that turns a simple trade of cards into a genuine puzzle.

Cards, relics and gems

Across a run you assemble a deck from a pool of over 200 cards, stack 80 relics with unique effects onto your heroes and upgrade cards with 30 special gems. There are so many combinations that two runs rarely feel alike: one moment you're building a poison engine, the next a wall of armour and counters, then an endless card-draw machine. Garfield's design pedigree really shows in how cards click together into unexpected synergies.

The hexagonal map and magic inks

Unlike the linear paths of many deckbuilders, Roguebook's world is a hexagonal map hidden beneath blank pages. You reveal it with magic inks: each ink type uncovers its own pattern of tiles, and where you spend that limited resource decides how many merchants, travelers, ruins and chests you can visit before the boss. Greed is rewarded with loot, but the risk of stumbling into a brutal fight grows too — a constant push and pull between power and safety.

Twenty difficulty tiers and epilogues

Beating the final boss isn't the end — it's the gateway to the endgame. Twenty difficulty levels unlock, and each one doesn't just buff enemies, it adds new relics, gems and encounters. For players who love squeezing the most out of a system, that's dozens of hours of meaningful progression: you're not repeating the same run, you're getting fresh tools for fresh threats every time.

What the key includes and what it doesn't

You get the full base game Roguebook — every hero, card, relic and difficulty mode is already inside, and you don't need to buy anything else to finish the game. The cosmetic and collector add-ons, however — the “The Art of Roguebook” artbook, the hero skins pack, the alternate art pack and the original soundtrack — are separate DLC and are not part of this key. If you want those, grab them separately on Steam.

Region and activation

The key is global: it activates on Steam in any region of the world, with no VPN and no country lock. Activation takes a minute: Steam → the “Games” menu → “Activate a Product on Steam” → enter the code → Roguebook shows up in your library. It's a permanent purchase, with no subscription or recurring fee — the game stays on your account forever.

Who Roguebook is for

If you love card roguelikes and have already sunk hours into the genre, Roguebook offers a fresh angle thanks to its two-hero system and map exploration. A fan of the genre? Check out other deckbuilders in our catalog too: Slay the Spire with its benchmark ascending tower, Monster Train with its multi-floor defense, and the narrative Inscryption that breaks the fourth wall. Roguebook stands apart by making you think not about a single deck but about a pairing of two heroes — and about which slice of the map you dare to uncover at all.
