Dig deeper for the shiniest cards

Roguebook - The player stands on an explorable grid of hex tiles, waiting to use an ability that will reveal the three tiles in a line in front of them.

Roguebookshowed up to yesterday’s Nacon Connect with a short teaser for an upcoming free update called the Gem Mines update. “How deep will you venture into the mines for those wonderful Gems,” Nacon say. “The further you go, the greater the reward… but also the greater risk!” You can snag a look at it down here in the trailer.

Although there’s no release date just yet on the Gem Mines update, Abrakam Entertainment have been working on other tweaks and fixes. The most recent patch for Roguebook landed just yesterday, bringing balance changes to some characters and “toning down some of the more ridiculous combos in the game” they explain in theirpatch notes.

If you’d not taken a crack at Roguebook just yet, Nate makes a good case for it as a standout among its peers in his review.

“There are two big factors which set Roguebook out as a winner for me,” Nate says. “The first is that, on each run, you control a duo of heroes chosen from a roster of four. Each has their own library of cards, reminiscent of the tribal system fromMonster Train, but with way more emphasis on the way you blend the flavours during play. Some cards get cheaper after you play another hero’s, for example, while others offer benefits if they’re played from a hand comprising only their stablemates.”

The Gem Mines update doesn’t have an announced release date yet, but it is “coming soon,” the developers say.
