About The Deepwoods
The Deepwoods is an action-deckbuilding-roguelike, in which you venture as far as possible into the Eternal Forest, to face the corruption festering at its core. With each wave of enemies you encounter, you draw a hand of cards from a deck of weapons and abilities - forcing you to adapt to fight off your foes! With over 150 different cards and 100 blessings to discover, each expedition into the woods will be a unique experience.
Equipment
Throughout the Eternal Forest you will find equipment of all kinds. Drafting a card allows it to be drawn in future combat waves, and you can further upgrade each card with runes - powerful enhancements that could increase a card's power or size, for instance.Blessings
Blessings bestowed by the forest spirits will further increase your chances of success. Each blessing provides a boon for the rest of your expedition. Some blessings might be more impactful than others, although all are powerful with the right circumstances and synergies...Roguelite/Roguelike
By default, the game offers a roguelite experience - but it offers a roguelike mode too!In roguelite mode, each run provides resources to upgrade your camp, providing permanent unlocks that aid you on future expeditions. Some options, cards, and blessings are locked to begin with, and are unlocked through play.In roguelike mode, everything is unlocked from the get-go, providing a more traditional experience for roguelike purists.What Steam players say

You can see how much thought and care went into this cute game! It's the perfect mix of challenging and fun that make me want to keep playing!5 found this helpful
The Deepwoods takes familiar roguelite mechanics and puts its own fresh twist on things, resulting in a challenging and highly addictive mixture. I particularly enjoyed the flavour text for some of the ranged weapons: you really can tell that the developer has put a lot of love and effort into this game. Highly highly recommended - I already can't wait to jump into my next run.3 found this helpful
Love the homing arrow things and the evil logs. :)3 found this helpful
Really cool mechanics with a retro style to it and level (clearing) by level system. It's pretty clear that the choice of card sets and decks alters the game experience significantly so I'm pretty keen to unlock more and try more things out. Initially, it felt like I was hitting a wall with the game progression but in just one more day, things picked up and I feel incentivised to get used to new enemy attack patterns mostly and new equip/blessings. I hope fans/creators of the game release a wiki for it some day!2 found this helpful
Would be a great game but it is one of those games that ABSOLUTELY NEEDS GAMEPAD SUPPORT. Was stunned the developer overlooked this and it was deal breaker for me. Standard functions missing in a game like this shows inexperience and little attention to what players need and expect. Refunded but as soon as gamepad support is in the game with ability to rebind the gamepad buttons I will rebuy it and change my review. It is unplayable in this state because of the huge amount of action movements and timing needed to play.2 found this helpful
