Midwest Games Launches Sci-Fi RPG Deckbuilder 'Dark Sky' on Steam Today

Midwest Games and Ganymede Games challenges you to craft your strongest deck, assemble your party wisely, and strike decisively in Dark Sky, a turn-based, deckbuilding sci-fi adventure following a planet in peril, available now on Windows PC via Steam and GOG.

Dark Sky is an immersive RPG adventure that blends deckbuilding, turn-based combat, and exploration as players fight for survival while uncovering the mystery behind a sudden planetary cataclysm.

Dark Sky offers players the ability to perfect their decks throughout the campaign. Play with a unique branching card upgrade system that gives players full control to switch up tactics on the fly. Line up attacks, combine status effects, and cause powerful reactions to save Wolf Prime.

Allies are crucial in Dark Sky, with each bringing their own set of cards, distinct playstyles, and personal motivations. Deploy protective barriers and create holographic clones as Squig, zap your enemies with Norton’s high voltage abilities, and throw poisonous grenades as Agama, just to name a few of the dynamic characters in this exciting cosmic deckbuilder.
