Trials of Fire is a strategic deck-building rogue-like set in a post-apocalyptic fantasy world with addictive gameplay and a wide range of options. You'll control a band of adventurers and travel the world, encountering obstacles, shops, side-quests, and combat encounters. The combat system is hex-based, with players and opponents using ability cards and equipment for actions that require varying willpower. The game has high replayability with pre-generated campaigns, randomly generated content, and multiple classes to choose from.


What we like:
  • Hex-based grid combat with well-designed interface
  • Resource management adds depth to gameplay
  • Open world with side quests, equipment, levels, traits, and multiple characters to control
  • Multiple campaigns with high replayability
  • Multiple classes to choose from with unique builds and equipment
What could be improved:
  • Inconsistent card draws make planning difficult
  • No long-term strategic thinking
  • A tedious initial grind until the player unlocks new classes and cards.
