A card game with roguelike elements, based on poker rules. In Zoeti, we engage in turn-based battles against monsters, playing cards, and creating poker hands tied to specific abilities. The more complex combinations we create, the more powerful skills we get.
Many modern card games are based on deck-building. Zoeti described here is a roguelike-enhanced game of this type, based on a different idea as it draws heavily from poker. It was developed by the independent studio Dusklight from Taiwan.
Zoeti allows us to take control of diverse characters. Valentina is a knight equipped with a shield that allows her to defend against enemy attacks, Alves is a rogue who mainly uses his cunning to dodge blows and slow down enemies, and Nicora is a sorceress wielding the power of the elements (fire, ice, and lightning). Additionally, allies such as the innkeeper Winfred and the cunning Rabelle are in the game.
The core of the gameplay consists of battles with opponents seen from the side-view. The battles are turn-based, and during them, we play cards to create poker hands (such as two pairs, a full house, or a royal flush). Each hand is associated with a specific skill, and the complexity of the combinations corresponds to the strength of the ability. Throughout successive attempts, we expand our arsenal of skills and upgrade those we already possess.
In Zoeti we find ourselves in a fantasy land whose inhabitants once enjoyed peace but are now struggling with monsters formed from the coagulated blood of a dead god. During the game we take on the role of a character endowed with a Star Soul, whose task is to cleanse the world of all filth.
The graphic design of Zoeti is maintained in a manga style.
