Embark on an Epic Post-Apocalyptic Journey in Armita's Search!

Dive into Armita's Search, a compelling story-driven tactical roguelite deckbuilder set in a fragmented, post-apocalyptic world. Guide Armita, a young survivor armed with her loyal robot companion and a unique education, as she navigates the perilous Barrens in search of her kidnapped father. This immersive experience blends the rich narratives of a visual novel with the strategic depth of card-based combat, offering unprecedented player agency and replayability.

Unveiling the Unique Gameplay Blend

Armita's Search masterfully combines two popular genres to create a truly distinct adventure. Experience a captivating visual novel with strong character development, meaningful choices, branching narrative paths, and multiple endings that genuinely react to your decisions. Alongside this compelling story, engage in highly strategic deckbuilding with turn-based tactical battles. You'll explore the eerie world of the Raiders, encountering its inhabitants, battling terrifying foes, and witnessing the bizarre wonders of a planet scarred by an alien invasion and partial terraforming.

Humanity: The Ultimate Resource

In the ruthless Barrens, your most vital asset isn't bullets or supplies, but your Humanity. Every decision you make in Armita's Search carries profound consequences, shaping not just dialogue, but available actions, how the world perceives you, and ultimately, your ending. Will you strive to maintain your compassion, even at a high cost, or harden your heart and embrace the harsh realities of survival, becoming a raider yourself? Your moral compass directly impacts your journey and the narrative's countless possibilities.

Forge Armita's Destiny in the Barrens

Armita's sheltered life in a hidden bunker shatters when the Patrol breaches it, taking her father. Accompanied only by Fred, her trusty nanny-bot and bodyguard, she ventures into the Barrens – a landscape simultaneously terraformed by aliens and ravaged by feral survivors. The harsh journey will transform Armita, and your choices will dictate if she can reunite with her family, uncover the truth behind the apocalypse, and crucially, who she becomes in this unforgiving new world. Explore a stylized 2D wasteland, brought to life with a gritty comic-book aesthetic and hand-drawn art that perfectly captures the desolate atmosphere.

Dynamic Deckbuilding and Companion System

Armita's Search introduces an innovative roguelite deckbuilding system. The Barrens are divided into distinct regions, and each new region brings a fresh start for your deck. Begin each segment with a quick build setup, allowing you to choose Armita's preset (unlocking new ones as she evolves) and two companions that join your journey. Each selection contributes signature cards, creating a customized 12-card starting deck. If you fail to clear a region, you can rebuild with different presets and companions, adapting your strategy for the challenging enemies and bosses ahead. This ensures every run offers unique tactical challenges and exciting opportunities for experimentation.

Master Strategic Card Mechanics

Beyond your initial deck, you'll discover three crucial card types:

Companion Cards: Named characters that, when hired, bring a 4-card mini-deck, ensuring immediate internal synergy and new tactical options.

Item Cards: Essential weapons and tools with unique mechanics to build powerful combinations and prepare for boss encounters.

Trouble Cards: Obstacles like thirst, breakdowns, radiation, and illness that hinder your progress and make battles tougher. Strategic removal of these cards is paramount for survival.

Engaging Turn-Based Tactical Combat

Experience deep turn-based tactical combat designed for strategic thinkers, not just fast reflexes. Face off against up to five enemies on each side, with allies and foes attacking automatically at the end of each turn. Crucially, enemies telegraph their intentions in advance, giving you a full turn to strategize and adapt. Utilize diverse attack patterns, from melee and ranged assaults to area attacks, buffs, and debuffs. Employ temporary cover for protection and decide whether to focus fire on enemy leaders to scatter their squads or meticulously eliminate rank-and-file foes first. Resource management is key; run short, and your deck fills with detrimental Trouble cards, increasing the difficulty of every encounter. Encounter guarded merchants, where your Humanity level dictates whether you trade fairly or resort to robbing them.

Unprecedented Replayability and Expanding Universe

Armita's Search offers immense replayability. Every attempt to clear a region presents new stories, enemies, and consequences. While key story events provide a backbone, their outcomes shift based on your choices and Humanity. Bosses and mini-bosses belong to fixed factions but present varied squad compositions, and a significant portion of events and battles are randomly generated, ensuring unique experiences within each region. Unlock new Armita presets, discover new companions and their mini-decks, and explore different routes and outcomes across regions. With multiple endings tied to your decisions, each playthrough feels fresh and impactful.

Armita's Search is more than just a game; it's an entry point into the expansive "Raiders World" universe. Following the success of our 2017 board game, we're building a rich narrative across multiple media. Look forward to an upcoming tabletop RPG, where you can become a raider, a comic series detailing the adventures of Valkyries Beth and Swift, and two more video games expanding this rich lore. Will you retain your Humanity in these scarred lands, or become a new horror yourself?
