How AI is used

Generative AI was used solely to create placeholder card artwork during development, allowing the team to focus on refining the gameplay. The final card artwork will be created by human artists.

About Hexwake

Hexwake is currently in prototype development. Wishlist to follow its development and future updates.

Hexwake is a single-player strategic card game combining turn-based tactical combat, card progression, and roguelite adventures.

Choose your Leader and embark on an adventure across a branching map. Improve your deck, discover new cards and upgrades, overcome unexpected encounters, and adapt your strategy as you fight your way through a war-torn kingdom.

Each Leader comes with a unique ability, starting deck, progression tree, and personal card pool.

During an adventure, develop your deck by adding new cards, upgrading existing ones, and choosing which options best fit your strategy.

Take your deck into turn-based tactical battles where cards and battlefield decisions work together.

Plan your turns, manage your resources, read your enemies, and use your Leader's abilities at the right moment. Adapt to the situation and make the most of the cards available to you.

For centuries, the elves of Lumeria were believed to be untouched by sickness and age. When a mysterious plague began to consume the kingdom, the royal court turned to an ancient ritual that promised to restore their lost immortality.

The ritual succeeded — but those who returned were no longer truly alive. Now the Hexbound Court, a cabal of cursed nobles gifted with unnatural power, wages war across Lumeria. Some have embraced their new nature, while others seek a way to undo the curse. As the kingdom falls into paranoia and bloodshed, its fate hangs in the balance.
