Press release:
Singapore – 20th October, 2022.
The Singapore-based indie games publisher The Iterative Collective and indie games developer YongJustYong Games, are today very excited and pleased to announce that their tactical deckbuilder/roguelike game “Sigil of the Magi”, is now available for PC (Windows) via Steam Early Access.

Pick your party of unique champions and embark on a journey through three ever-changing worlds full of challenging encounters, rewarding events, and hidden secrets before you face formidable bosses at the end of each expedition. Every champion has their own distinct set of cards and passive abilities that will alter your playstyle with each run. Take advantage of useful treasures, powerful relics, and valuable boons to boost your Champions’ abilities and lead them to victory!

“Sigil of the Magi blends great mechanics and interesting storytelling in a way that creates an engaging, dynamic, and satisfyingly challenging experience that we can’t wait for players to get to explore,” says Matthew Quek, CEO of The Iterative Collective.

“With its progressive and flexible gameplay, the balanced mix of deckbuilding and roguelike elements, and the thrill of collecting bonuses and treasures while powering up your Champions, this release has something for everyone!”

Sigil of the Magi’s key features:

Control unique champions – Each champion comes with their own set of cards and passive abilities that require you to play to their strengths and take advantage of synergies that can mean the difference between victory or defeat in battle. Choose a pre-made faction or mix and match available champions to suit your playstyle.
Collect treasures – Valuable gold, powerful relics, and additional cards can be earned through exploration and combat. Each provides powerful benefits throughout gameplay and can affect the entire party.
Battle increasingly difficult enemies – Travel through dynamic maps as you take on progressively difficult foes in exciting, turn-based combat that continually introduces new challenges the further you manage to progress.
Create synergistic strategies – Build your deck thoughtfully. There are myriad strategies to try, but each starts with a cohesive set of cards and careful choices as you add to your deck and upgrade your arsenal throughout gameplay.
Make impactful decisions – From the route you take to the enemies you fight to your choices during surprise encounters, each decision you make can change the outcome of your run. Every playthrough is different, so the possibilities are endless.
