How co-op works
Online, LAN, or local co-op through procedurally generated roguelike runs. Players build card decks together, coordinate synergies, and make tactical decisions in turn-based battles against escalating enemies across shifting encounters.
About this game
Cardtographer is a deck-building roguelike that drops cooperative teams into procedurally generated runs to collect cards, battle tactical encounters, and seal away a returning evil. Each attempt reshuffles the map, enemies, and rewards, forcing fresh decisions and new strategies every time you start a run.

Gameplay revolves around assembling card decks from discovered loot and layering synergies that amplify combat effectiveness. Turn-based battles demand positioning, timing, and shared tactics as enemies threaten to end the run. Co-op coordination sharpens every choice, from deck construction to battlefield decisions that leverage each player's strengths and counter immediate threats.
Runs are designed for repeat attempts, with procedural variety and unlockable cards deepening strategy across sessions. Teams can tackle the challenge on one screen, across a local network, or online, testing communication and adaptability as danger escalates with every corner turned.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does co-op work in Cardtographer?
You can play cooperatively with teammates locally on one screen, over LAN, or online. The game supports shared/split-screen co-op and online co-op, so you have flexibility whether you're together or remote. Teams coordinate deck-building choices and tactical decisions to survive each procedurally generated run.
Is every run different, or will I see the same maps and enemies?
Each run is procedurally generated, reshuffling the map layout, enemy encounters, and available rewards. This means every attempt offers fresh challenges and forces new strategic decisions, giving the game strong replay value as you unlock more cards and refine team strategies.
How important is communication between teammates?
Communication is central to success. You'll need to coordinate deck-building choices to create synergies, position units effectively in turn-based battles, and adapt tactics on the fly as threats emerge. The roguelike structure rewards teams that can plan together and react quickly to danger.
Can I play Cardtographer solo, or is it co-op only?
The game supports both single-player and co-op modes. You can tackle runs alone if you prefer, but the co-op mode is a major focus, designed around teamwork, shared tactics, and coordinated deck synergies.
