In this dice-based, deck-building, roguelite adventure, scavenge the Wyrd and escape the approaching Thing of the Dark. Load your dice with powerful augments to create your own synergies and combos and stack the odds in your favour. In the rabbit hole of the Wyrd, the only way back up, is down.

Features

  • Unit synergies: Units gain new abilities and interactions when certain types of units are present.
  • Player-Unit synergies: The player can interact with certain units to get beneficial effects that affect combat, e.g. killing a specific unit causes damage to those around it.
  • Item synergies: Build up your deck with powerful items, that synergise well together.
  • Elemental synergies: elemental effects can synergise e.g. Bleed damage is reduced by Cold and Disease can spread to Cold or Bleeding units.
  • Interactives: Interact with the environment for new gameplay.
  • Complex Boss mechanics: It’s like encountering a mini raid boss.
  • Movement mechanics: Your character isn’t stuck in one place, which enables you to dodge certain attacks and most items have positional requirements.
  • Dice and dice loading: With powerful augments, you can stack the odds in your favour and minimise the RNG.
  • Upgrade items your way: Upgrade your items in any way that suits your style and deck.
  • Manage your Scent: Strategically progress through the map, Darkness is right behind you.
  • Enemies scale as you progress: Enemies gain new abilities and become stronger depending on what level you encounter them.
  • Use Sanity: Madness is a double edged sword.

"To us, The Endless Wyrd is the quest for the stupidly overpowered and we can't wait for players to uncover the ridiculously overpowered synergies and combinations that we have in store", says Janke van Jaarsveld, CEO of Design Imps, "We are also very proud of the game's South African roots, boasting the unique comic art style of Willem Samuel, who's band, SkreeAlleen, incidentally also lent their talents to the soundtrack."
“The Endless Wyrd” is scheduled for Early Access release in Q3 of 2021 and an early Alpha demo is currently available on Steam. “At Design Imps we are committed to the concept of "Together we can make it better”. It was the reason we implemented an easy to use modding system for Fhtagn! - Tales of the Creeping Madness and the reason we want to have Early Access. We believe that with the input of players we can make this game amazing!”, says Janke.

About Design Imps:Design Imps was founded in 2010 by Janke and Ilana van Jaarsveld as a bootstrapping Indie Studio in Pretoria, South Africa. Through the help of friends and family and after years of paper prototypes and double jobs, the company finally started development of their first title The Creeping Madness, in 2017. To keep the project alive, focus was shifted in 2018 to create Fhtagn! Tales of the Creeping Madness, in order to secure much needed funds. The team decided to place a hold on The Creeping Madness in 2019, till the studio could grow more in size and experience and so The Endless Wyrd was born and production on this dice-based roguelite deckbuilder is scheduled to enter the Early Access phase in Q3 of 2021.
