Press release:
London, UK – 12 April 2023.
Chucklefish today announced their deck-building, roguelike adventure, “Wildfrost“, is out now on PC via Steam and the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo Eshop.

Players will adventure across a frozen tundra building out their card deck of charming companions and powerful elemental items, in an attempt to reclaim a world that has fallen to the Wildfrost. Only the small civilisation of Snowdwell and its survivors remain as the final stronghold against an eternal winter. Players will need to use smart strategy and their deck-building skills to banish the Wildfrost once and for all!

Throughout the game, players will have the chance to recruit dozens of cute card companions and gift them wobbly charms to enhance their powers. Return to Snowdwell after each run and rebuild the town, unlock more cards and encounter new challenges and events for an adventure that has endless replayability.

Wildfrost Features:

A perfect mix of deckbuilding and adventure. Wildfrost lets players test card their battling skills as they fight to save the village of Snowdwell.
Multiple, unique ‘leaders’ from a variety of different tribes at the beginning of each journey, each gifted with different randomised stats and skills.
The ‘dynamic counter system’ to exploit foes and frosty monsters’ weaknesses.
A compendium of cute card companions, elemental items and powerful charms to recruit and increase tactical options in battle.
Endless replayability filled with challenges and a new Daily Run.
Fun jangly charm cameos from Massive Monster & Devolver’s ‘Cult of the Lamb’, and MaddyMakesGames & EXOK’s ‘Celeste’.

Wildfrost is available in all its glacial glory now on PC and Nintendo Switch for $19.99/£16.75/€19.50.
