What is Nadir: A Grimdark Deck Builder - Prologue?
This free prologue is a single-player deckbuilding roguelike set in an underworld inspired by Dante's Divine Comedy. As an avatar of a Deadly Sin, you fight demons in turn-based duels, combine red and blue abilities into dual-purpose cards, and gather resources on expeditions. Between attempts, you expand the city of Nadir to unlock characters, cards, and vendors.

- +you enjoy experimenting with deck combinations across repeated attempts
