What if your deck didn’t just get stronger… but mutated like loot in an ARPG?

That’s the core idea behind Duelo, a new experimental roguelite that blends:

  • Tactical card combat inspired by Magic: The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh!
  • Loot-driven progression inspired by ARPGs like Diablo

And today…
the Alpha is finally live.

A Different Kind of Card Game


In most card games, you build your deck, optimize it, and play.

Duelo breaks that loop.

Here, your cards are not static. They can be corrupted — permanently transformed through a loot-like system that can:

  • Add new mechanics and keywords
  • Turn single attacks into multi-hit combos
  • Create unexpected chain effects
  • Introduce powerful… but dangerous drawbacks

Every corruption is a roll.

You might create something broken.
Or something that ruins your entire strategy.

Not Just RNG — Skill Still Matters


Despite the chaos, Duelo is deeply strategic:

  • Your hero is always on the battlefield
  • Positioning and timing are key
  • Every turn forces meaningful decisions

This is not about luck.

It’s about adapting when your own deck becomes unpredictable.

A Roguelite Run That Fights Back


Each run takes you through a branching map filled with evolving encounters:

  • Enemies gain modifiers
  • Rules can change mid-run
  • Familiar fights become new challenges

Do you play it safe…
or chase powerful (and risky) corruptions?

What You Can Find in This Alpha?

  • A 6-floor map
  • 6 different encounter types
  • 46 base cards/items to unlock
  • Thousands of possible card permutations through corruption
  • And when you defeat the final boss… Well, you’ll have to see that for yourself.
