Overworld Map, New Tower and JuiceHi there!
A new update for the Lost For Swords demo just dropped! It includes a full rework of the systems and visuals outside of a tower run, including an overworld map. Furthermore, lots of improvements to help beginner players learn the game better, such as a second tower and better visual guides... and lots of other stuff too :)
Here's what's new:
- Introduced overworld map
- Added second tower that serves as a better introduction to tower gameplay
- Reworked first fort
- Reworked objective system: defeat monsters to obtain winged key, which opens door to next floor
- NPCs and Bosses are more talkative
- Added options for disabling post-processing and particles/flashing
- Healer can raise your Max HP by 2 if you visit her fully healed
- Slightly increased base HP of Knight and Rogue
- Small HP Adjustments to Monsters and Props
- Visible healthbars for cards
- Renamed Dungeon Deck to Monster Deck
- Reworked Defiance to only trigger when hero is 8-neighbor
- Many visual improvements to movement and attacking
- Small changes to monster pathfinding
- Fixed Ethereal Shuriken returning to deck - thanks @Jam2020
- Fixed upgraded Reactive Armor not working as described - thanks @Jam2020
- Fixed Vainglory shuffling one too many Vanity into the deck - thanks @TheOneWhoWondersThere
- New Card: Subtle Body Charm
Thanks for reading and see you at the next patch! :)
Bye! ()

Lost For Swords is a Roguelike Deckbuilder, where the cards in your deck shape the rooms you’re exploring. Make your way up the tower, equip weapons and armor, cast spells and scrolls, activate auras, collect loot and fight the monsters on each floor.
The clue: the equipment you pick up can only be used once! Plan ahead how you spend your resources. Are your cards strong enough? Can you make it to the next dungeon floor?
Your equipment cards and the cards of the dungeon are shuffled together and placed on the board, creating a unique challenge every time!
Between dungeon floors, you can upgrade your equipment to build the strongest deck possible. Can you find synergies between the cards?

Key Features:
- Deck Building and Playstyles: build and refine your deck as you fight your way up the towers. Choose wisely and craft the best deck from 100+ available cards. Play offensive or defensive, sneaky or powerful, deliberate or reckless. You decide!
- Simple UI, Complex Strategy: every single one of your actions is a simple click. No inventory management, no menus, no card dragging, no busywork. Just pure turn based strategy and tactics!
- Roguelike Runs: choose a hero and ascend the floors of a tower that is ever-changing. No two runs are the same. How far can you make it?
Additional Facts:
- 3 playable characters, each with 100+ cards
- multiple unlockable alternative starter decks for each character
- 6 distinct towers with unique monsters, traps and bosses
- quests and random encounters, which can change the course of a run
- level editor with the ability to share and play other's levels
- lots of difficulty modifiers to challenge all kinds of players
