Each character attacks what’s right in front of them!

There are only two exceptions:

1. If there is a taunt.
2. If you are the prey.

When one of your team members dies, they do not die forever.

They simply go back to your reserve and are available again after a fight.

In Once Upon a Rogue’s Tale not every fight will give you the same result!

Sometimes you can even unlock new characters, dice, cards or coins!

It’s always worth it to check for what your enemies can do.

On the left side of the playing field you can find effects that persist over multiple turns.

Resting at a campfire can unlock your character’s abilities!

Different characters will unlock different abilities!

Each event in Once Upon a Rogue’s Tale is slightly different!

If you like that, come and explore!

We only just launched into early access on Steam and would love your feedback and ideas!

During resting you can also unlock new abilities, helping you to survive battles to come!

For example when you encounter a restsite, you can heal your team or unlock new abilities!

Healing your team is pretty straight forward but very important to keep your team alive!

Since Once Upon a Rogue’s Tale is a roguelike your run is over once your main character’s HP goes to 0!

Did you know that when you unlock a character’s ability during restsite, that they receive a star on the top left corner of their card?

We're actually thinking of changing this in the future to be more visible. Maybe another color for the card border?

In Once Upon a Rogue’s Tale you have to think outside the box!

Hansel and Gretel actually have a pretty amazing passive ability which is “Tag Team”.

It alloves them to change who is fighting during combat!

Beware in Once Upon a Rogue’s Tale enemies can have different passive abilities.

Enchanted Pine Cones come with “Thorns” 🌲

Which means you get damage when you attack! ⚔️🩸
