As fate would have it, you’ve stumbled upon this game. Might as well give it a try. Who knows what you might encounter… ayyy. Get it? Encounter is the name of the game. When I said, “who knows what you might encounter,” it was a play on words.
So, what’s this Tarot thing about? They represent scenarios where you might have to think on your feet, snack on some magical berries, or even get attacked by a [REDACTED]-eating succubus! Fun! But it's not just fate at play—you’ll need to manage your resources wisely, timing your limited actions perfectly as you navigate a labyrinth of twists and turns, and overcome a host of unpredictable events.
Your adventure kicks off with a single crate. What’s inside? Treasure? Trash? A mildly cursed sandwich? Crack it open and find out! From there, anything goes. You’ll encounter oddballs, outlaws, and outright disasters. Duel the friendly neighborhood postman, accidentally infuriate a small child, or face down ambush after ambush—who’s to say? Will you fight, finesse, or just wing it and pray to the RNG gods? Whatever you do, tread carefully—your journey lasts only as long as you do, and the next tavern might be farther than you expect.
In Encounter, Tarot cards shape the events and rewards of your run. Your goal? Gain as much knowledge and wisdom as possible before you go bye-bye.
But here’s the catch—everything is limited. Rare items break, inventory space is tight, and planning ahead is key. Managing your resources is just the start; chaining actions together for devastating combos is where the real strategy comes into play.
If you like roguelikes, inventory management, a touch of deck-building, simple medieval turn-based RPGs with nostalgic pixel graphics, and games called Encounter, then, well… you’ll probably like Encounter!
✔ 200+ unique and powerful items
✔ 100+ adaptive encounters
✔ Inventory management
✔ Deck manipulation
✔ Action sequencing
✔ Mom's spaghetti
Life is unpredictable. One moment you’re stacking wins, the next you’re getting drop-kicked by fate. That’s why you should play this game NOW! If you’re reading this, you’re probably the kind of person who overthinks things (lol)—which means you’ll love the deep yet deceptively simple strategy this game offers!
It’s big-brain if you want it to be, yet extremely easy to pick up and play. Either way, your fate is in your hands… potentially.

Improvements
\n- Added music to the entire game... finally.\n- Pressing Esc now returns you to the menu and prompts you to exit the game (instead of minimizing the window).\n- Updated the final two Inn encounters before the end-game Dj Vu. They look cooler and sell cheaper foodbut you can no longer go upstairs at the 6th Inn. You will see why.\n\nFixes
\n- Fixed an issue where the Artisan ability wouldnt disappear from the Inn selection after being purchased.\n- Fixed Equipment Slot highlights not appearing correctly when moving items from the Stash.\n- Fixed the surrender sound effect triggering after every rune trigger.\n- Fixed an issue where the battle fist bump effect could trigger every time you moved an item (yeah that was annoying).\n- Fixed a hang that could occur after defeating the Swamp Tickler boss.- Food with infinite durability can now be consumed infinitely.
- You can now gain Knowledge upstairs at the Inn via additional Royal Decrees in the late game.
- Updated the visuals for the first four Inn encounters (two more on the way).

[/*]
Item Balance (122 changes)
The most important change is that non-food items can now have an Eat cost. This makes food more useful than ever, which is why the innkeeper now sells it every night.

Good news for Steam Deck players! My friend tested the game on it and it runs smoothly with full touch-screen controls. While the game isnt fully optimized for Deck yet (Ive been mainly focused on the PC experience) the entire UI was designed with mobile and touch input in mind from the start.
That means key interactions work naturally on the Deck like:
Tap an enemy to check their inventory (instead of hovering).
[/*]Swipe through your deck (instead of scrolling).
[/*]Buttons and layout scale cleanly for a handheld screen.
[/*]
I havent done my own full pass on the Steam Deck yet, but everything appears to function as intended. I hope youll still enjoy the adventure while I continue refining the experience! If you run into anything odd, feel free to share or shame lolyour feedback helps a ton.
In this latest update, Encounter: The Lost Cards has evolved into a trading card game where you play with four tradable cards. Yes, you read that correctly: four playable cards. Full Steam Market integration allows players to shape a real player-driven economy inside a single-player, turn-based roguelike! The shop/inventory page has been revamped to include Giftboxes which can be opened with Wisdom!

What do these mysterious cards do? Thats the fun part: nobody knows yet. Youll have to earn them to find out! Be sure to complete the new missions introduced via achievements to unlock powerful starting gear to help get you further than you\'ve ever gone before. Oh, and don\'t forget to tap and hold the Tarot cards to inspect your deck!
