You struggle against your inevitable fall into despair. To live – and play – another day.Faith in Despair is a grimdark roguelike deckbuilder that allows you to create your own cards using triggers, actions and modifiers to concoct devastating synergies. Every run holds new dangers and every action will inevitably push you closer towards despair.

  • Shape your deck: Formulate your strategy and devise devastating synergies to level the legions of Death.

  • Explore your own path: Follow Faith's journal, reveal her story and unlock new starter decks to challenge Death.

The idea of the game is fantastic, but in true roguelite fashion you will frequently lose runs to things that are impossible to deal with and extremely unfair. For instance, there is an ability that enemies can spawn with called Exile, which removes cards from your deck until you get to a rest location. This ability can trigger once per round, and can trigger off of something like "Playing any card", so there are situations in which there is essentially no counterplay. It is possible to never roll a rest location to get those cards back. It is also possible to have an enemy exile your entire deck right before a boss fight. Both have happened to me and it's a genuine feels bad moment.

Great idea, but the pace of the metaprogression is so slow, that the whole idea of the game starts to feel stale. You have 2 unique cards randomly at the start of the run and couple of mostly dysfunctional gems that could be used later. When you finish the run (through fail or success), you will unlock 1 additional gem out of let's say 50 and you have 25 unlocked already. So you will need 25 more runs, an hour each to unlock the gems (so they will be made available to you randomly in the later runs?). Not sure about unlocking the starting cards - 10 hours in and they are still locked and chosen randomly. I can unlock some of them (so I may be able to choose one from the start) by playing some gem or card 100000 times, or bashing my head 99999 times - that sort of stuff. If I'm in a mood for a grindfest, I will seek it elsewhere, to be honest. Otherwise nice idea of a game. I just don't have 100 additional years to unlock this virtual world piece by piece.

A fun twist on the deckbuilding archetype

I was shocked and floored by the atmosphere of this game, I play a healthy amount of these card games and I never expect to be totally hypnotized by one when I sit down to check it out. The music SLAPS. The mechanics are interesting and fun to experiment with.

I've never been much of a card game fan, yet FiD was incredibly fun to play. I'd say it's worth a try!
