Desert Revenant
About This Game
"The sands of Elmyr await — do you have the brains and the brawn to survive?"
Desert Revenant is the roguelike deck-building RPG that started the series. Set in the Arabian-themed world of Elmyr, torn apart by conflict between the Sultanate and the Jinn Kings, it emphasises game knowledge and skill over grind.
Choose your character, build your deck, and navigate hand-crafted encounters across multiple maps. Every decision shapes your run — and the story. No two playthroughs are the same.
