KEMCO Releases Novel Rogue: Card Deck-Building Roguelite on Android

KEMCO has just launched a brand-new roguelite experience on Android titled *Novel Rogue*—a captivating blend of card deck-building, turn-based strategy, and immersive storytelling wrapped in charming pixel art. If you're into fantasy JRPGs filled with magic, mystery, and meaningful choices, this one’s definitely worth checking out.

In *Novel Rogue*, you step into the shoes of Wright, a young apprentice under the guidance of Yuisil, the enigmatic Witch of Portals. The Ancient Library serves as your base of operations, from which you dive into the pages of four unique magical books—each transporting you to a different world filled with peril, adventure, and secrets waiting to be uncovered.

One book sends you on a quest to help a princess knight restore a fallen kingdom. Another plunges you into the eerie depths of the underworld, where every decision alters the story and reshapes the world around you. With branching paths and dynamic narratives, no two playthroughs ever feel the same.

What’s the Gameplay Like in Novel Rogue?

The heart of *Novel Rogue* lies in its strategic, turn-based card combat system—which evolves depending on the world you're exploring. Each of the four books features a distinct deck-building mechanic, allowing for fresh experiences and strategies across runs.

As you battle enemies and progress through the game, you’ll earn new cards after each encounter, giving you the chance to refine and optimize your deck. A standout feature is the “Change” command, which lets you redistribute damage among allies for better tactical control. Meanwhile, “Novel Power” adds another layer of depth by letting you strengthen your deck using ink resources collected during gameplay.

For those seeking an extra challenge, the Deep Record mode ramps up dungeon difficulty, offering high-stakes battles and greater rewards. Outside of combat, exploration plays a key role—you’ll gather treasures that boost relationships with characters, unlocking special dialogue options and even exclusive endings.

If personalization is your thing, *Witch Stones* let you switch between various character costumes, so you can customize your team with your favorite looks.

*Novel Rogue* is available to download for free on the Google Play Store. For players looking for extra perks, there's also a premium version that includes 150 bonus Witch Stones, ad-free gameplay, and more.
