Wiesbaden, Germany - October 13th - Horizon Edge and Assemble Entertainment are showcasing a demo of Decktamer, scheduled for release on October 27th, as part of Steam Next Fest. From October 13th to 20th, dive into a week-long celebration of upcoming indie games.
Decktamer blends roguelike deckbuilding with monster-taming. Instead of drawing abstract cards, every card is a living creature that must first be captured in battle. Try your hand at an exclusive Decktamer demo to find out if you can hold your own in the Abyss.
In Decktamer, your cards don’t just sit in your hand; they bite back. Every card is a living creature with its own instincts. It fights, it falls, and when it dies, it’s gone for good. You can fuse them, mutate them, or sacrifice them outright, but every move reshapes your lineup forever.
You’re wielding a deck that’s less a pile of paper and more a dangerous, ever-shifting monster squad where every decision has teeth.

Players grow by capturing stronger creatures, transferring abilities, and protecting their key allies. Over multiple runs, the Abyss reveals new events, more challenging foes, and opportunities to refine strategies. Each playthrough offers different possibilities, encouraging experimentation (that could end with a monster graveyard).
