About Arena of Shaelo


Arena of Shaelo is a pixelated co-op card game set in the world of Shaelo.

Your somewhat cozy life in one of Shaelo's richer parts of the country, inhabited mainly by Squeans and occasional Swyrr migrants is interrupted by an arrival of a letter. Upon reading it, you learn that your uncle, now living at the other side of the kingdom, has fallen ill.

Upon learning about your uncle's malady, you and your friend hastily set off to pay him a visit. Unfortunately, during your journey you are captured by one of countless Shaelo's dukes. Though suspected of plotting against the Z'buck race, you are given a chance to redeem your freedom. In order to do so, you have to defeat all the reigning champions of the Arena of Shaelo.

Really good game to play with a friend next to you! Me and my friend haven't finished it yet but we reached the last page of monsters. It may seem a bit boring at first, but after the second page it gets super fun, you and your friend will need to comunicate a lot to beat the bosses. Also, it's free! Highly Recommended / 10

Arena of Shaelo is a Czech 2D retro pixel local co-op battle cardgame where players share the same PC mouse + keyboard and select various cards/attacks to use in battle with various enemies in a modestly sized story driven campaign. While the concept is novel, the implementation here is a complete mess. You have to step through a ridiculous EULA just so you're allowed to play this rather deficient 2D retro pixel card game... that's a little on the nose, but at least there's no indication of any kind of privacy invasion. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. A choice was made to use obsolete, decades old retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result. There's no options to change the resolution for the game or customise the graphics settings. There's no way for gamers to ensure this is running at the native resolution of their displays... there's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision.

Arena of Shaelo предлагает увлекательный мир с яркими визуальными эффектами и динамичным боем. Графика сочетает в себе эстетику и технологичность, а музыка подчёркивает атмосферу. Gameplay отличается грацией и стратегией, но некоторые моменты требуют больше времени на освоение. В целом — качественный выбор для любителей кибер-драм.

Without time limit this game will be boring as ♥♥♥♥ (it's still quite boring) and I wasn't expecting a reaction game, but rather a game with interesting combos between the hands of the 2 players
