Harma is a retro-inspired dark fantasy roguelike deckbuilder set in a world filled with betrayal and despair. Developed by INDIRECT SHINE, the game features pixel art visuals, a story-driven campaign, and unique card-based combat mechanics powered by ancient artifacts.
Gameplay and Visuals
The game presents a retro pixel art style with three distinct characters: a stern man with a mustache, a young armored figure with a ponytail, and a woman with red eyes wielding a glowing green hand and an open book. The environment is marked by silhouetted structures and birds in a somber sky, establishing the game’s dark fantasy tone.
Harma’s gameplay centers on roguelike deckbuilding, where card power is influenced by three randomly activated artifacts. Players can spend Focus to control artifact activation, introducing strategic decision-making. Over 300 unique cards and artifacts combine with two playable characters, allowing for a broad range of deck strategies.
Main Characters and Setting
The narrative unfolds in a kingdom devastated by the return of knights who have turned against their own people. Players confront the aftermath of this betrayal, standing alone amidst the ruins. The cast includes the three visually confirmed characters, each contributing to the story’s grim atmosphere.
