About Recall Rogue
THE KNOWLEDGE ROGUELITE
Every card in your deck is a real fact. Answer a question to charge it. Charged cards hit harder. Much harder.
Skip the question and play it safe for base damage. Get the answer wrong and the card still fires, just weaker. You're never punished for trying.
The game tracks what you know with FSRS, the same spaced repetition algorithm behind Anki. Facts you struggle with come back more often. Facts you've nailed fade to the back of the queue. You're winning because you're learning. That's the whole trick.
Chain cards from the same topic back-to-back. Two history facts in a row? 1.5x multiplier. Five in a row? 3.5x.
HOW COMBAT WORKS
Five cards per turn. Each one is a mechanic (Strike, Block, Hex, Overclock, Transmute) with a chain color linking it to a topic in your deck. 3 action points.
Quick Play fires the card instantly. Base damage, no questions asked.
Charge Play costs an extra action point and pulls up a quiz. Get it right and the card hits harder. Get it wrong and the card still resolves at reduced power.
Three quick plays per turn, or one charged play and one quick. The right call changes every fight.
ENEMIES THAT CARE WHAT YOU KNOW
89 enemies across three dungeon regions. Some react directly to your quiz performance.
- The Peer Reviewer gains strength every turn you don't charge
- Pop Quiz is stunned by correct answers but grows if you play it safe
- The Curriculum becomes immune to quick plays halfway through

- 8 bosses with phase transitions. The Final Lesson quizzes you at 66% and 33% HP
100 DECKS. 68,000 FACTS.

- Science Periodic Table, AP Biology, AP Chemistry, AP Physics, Dinosaurs & Paleontology
- 8 Languages Japanese (JLPT N5-N1), Chinese (HSK 1-6), Spanish (A1-C2), French (A1-B2), German, Korean, Czech, Dutch

CARDS, RELICS, CHAINS
- 98 card mechanics across 6 types. Strikes, shields, hexes, buffs, debuffs, wild cards. Mastery levels 0-5 that scale as you answer correctly.
- 90 relics that shape your build. Quicksilver Quill rewards fast answers. Scholar's Crown amplifies review queue cards. Volatile Core hits 50% harder but wrong answers hurt.
- Knowledge Chains 3 chain colors per run from your deck's topics. Charge same-color cards in sequence for up to 3.5x multiplier.
- 20 ascension levels for when the base game stops hurting enough.
THE DUNGEON
Three regions. Combat, shops, rest sites, treasure rooms, mystery events. The Burning Library. The Wrong Answer Museum. The Riddle Stranger.
Rest at the campfire. Heal, or study three questions to level up your cards without combat pressure. The Keeper sits by the fire. They've been there longer than you.
TWO WAYS TO PLAY
Trivia Dungeon The roguelite. Pick a deck, fight through three acts, beat the bosses.
Study Temple Pick a deck and study it. FSRS-weighted selection focuses on what you're struggling with. Combat is still there, but the emphasis shifts to retention.

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Obvious AI, some of the cards just doesnt work ( ;ike skip enemys turn and next attack uses twice ) But concept of the game is so good Being a free game makes it good itself5 found this helpful
Wonderful concept! Been a big fan of it since I first learned about it an hour ago! There are a number of issues; most minor, a couple of bigger ones: There are a few mechanics that either weren't explained, or perhaps I missed them in the tutorial. I don't know the importance of chaining cards with like crystals (jade, amber, etc.) The spiderweb-like attack doesn't have a description or an entry in the mechanics page. Charging some cards doesn't appear to have an effect. One particular card lowers the AP cost of the following card by one, another will play the next card twice. I either got the question wrong, or didn't notice the effect. I likely got it wrong because some of the questions require more than general knowledge of an event, it requires knowing a date, or a particular quantity of something, Having answered around a hundred questions, I've seen repeats/re-wordings about a quarter of the time. If a question is reworded ten times, does that count as 10 out of the 67,000+ facts? Or are they picked in true random, and not seeded and I've just been unlucky? Or is it taking a Duolingo-like approach where it will pick from a small group of questions, and repeat those until…1 found this helpful
It is a great game aside from the bugs1 found this helpful
Imo, the world needs this game. Consider it part of your calling to do it, properly, as it's much less than 50% complete in terms of testing and debugging. Then sell it, because a robust, reliable, UI-polished, completed concept will be worth it and invaluable to students and to people trying to replace bad tech habits and addictions with better ones. Ignore the AI critics on this one, because you're actually be using AI for good, and if it's a fully working (all listed features) version, you'll have no trouble finding artists to help out in the future. Recommending only because this needs support
When i have to pick cards to master when i do the meditate at the campfire how do i confirm my selection i am stuck i can't do anything
I like your idea! I hope to get more updates in the future. There are a few problems I encountered. i dont know how to import my Anki decks. The instructions in Steam is unclear for me. Unable to create account. It said "unable to reach the server." I have been trapped in the same floor without any monster / boss appears. I cannot finish the run. it said "waiting for encounter." my only option was to return to the campfire. But I do not want to abandon the run >. < when i resume the run, i was in the same floor again.
