Command Deck is a sci-fi, deckbuilding, turn-based roguelike where you control your starship with a deck of cards. As the Captain of the starship Peregrine, you’re on an exploration mission to the Outer Reaches, a remote frontier. Face a hostile civilization that has a secret to keep. Uncover the truth behind an ancient and powerful artifact that threatens the entire galaxy. Your cards direct your ship in combat. Will you raise shields, or will you play cards to fire your blasters? Careful choices and strategic thinking will be required to survive in the Outer Reaches. Gameplay Features Fight enemies who fight with their own decks. Enemy captains control their ships with cards, the same as you. Their powerful decks will create danger for your ship. But you can turn their tricks back on them by disrupting their hands, adding glitches to their decks, and stealing their cards. Endless replayability in the Outer Reaches. Every visit to the Outer Reaches is unique, with different map events, enemies, and rewards. Your decisions open new possibilities in this randomly-generated frontier where danger and opportunity are constantly in flux. Build a powerful ship. Choose cards, recruit officers, and upgrade your ship. Find powerful synergies between your deck, crew, and systems to take on your most dangerous enemies. Uncover a galactic mystery. A hostile civilization guards an ancient, powerful artifact. Can you uncover the truth before it's too late?
