Darkness takes root today. Roots Devour, the strategic exploration card game from Rewinding Games and GCORES PUBLISHING, has officially launched on Steam for PC. Priced at $14.99, players can grab it at a 10% launch discount ($13.49) during the first two weeks.
Blending strategy, adventure, resource management, and deckbuilding, Roots Devour revolves around a striking core idea: Connection. You don’t just play cards—you link them. Each placement forms part of a living ecosystem where positioning shapes triggers, buffs, and resource flow. Instead of traditional roguelike combat loops, the game emphasizes risk evaluation, spatial planning, and expansion. Cards become bridges, tools for harvesting blood, and pathways into the Unknown.
You play as a newborn eldritch entity, extending roots through a decaying world, devouring life to grow stronger. The perspective is chillingly inhuman—predator over prey, god over offering. Gothic visuals and Lovecraftian horror define the atmosphere, while fragmented storytelling rewards careful exploration and interpretation.
To mark launch, Roots Devour is also featured in dark-themed Steam bundles with Look Outside, Menace from the Deep, Out of Hands, and Journey of Realm: Dawn Dew, with crossover eldritch Easter eggs hidden within.
For players drawn to eerie aesthetics, experimental mechanics, and cosmic dread, this is one root worth following.
