Akupara Games to Publish “Dice Deck-Building” Roguelike Astrea: Six-Sided Oracles, reveal trailer released

Akupara Games has a 5th anniversary event coming up, so what better way to celebrate than to announce a new game? Astrea: Six-Sided Oracles is an all new dice-deck-building rougelike game available to wishlist on Steam now. Check out the reveal trailer above and read on below for more info:

LOS ANGELES, CA – October 20, 2021 – Akupara Games, alongside Brazil-based developer Little Leo Games, announces Astrea: Six-Sided Oracles, an all-new dice-deck-building roguelike. Using an ever-changing deck of dice and enchanted sentinels, Purify waves of Corrupted foes and a decayed goddess to save the Star System. The title makes its first appearance during Akupara Games’ 5th-anniversary event, during which the company celebrates its continued passion for supporting other indie developers.

The galactic-gothic 2D strategy game combines the deck-building genre with RPG elements. Astrea innovates the deck-building genre by adding six-faced dice in place of single-effect cards. This allows for the emergence of the game’s core mechanic, where the player will need to tactfully balance between the Purification and Corruption of their foes and themself. As one of six characters paired with guardian Sentinels, players must defeat rooms of enemies or bosses to obtain upgrades in the form of new dice and character enhancements paired against dynamically changing gameplay as the climb progresses. The new trailer is available to watch below.

“It’s an exciting time for Akupara Games! 5 years is a long time to be around,” said David Logan, the CEO. “We’re continuously humbled, especially when great titles like Astrea come to us for publishing; we’re always excited to continue being part of these journeys with such talented teams. Astrea, with its dark-centric artwork, expansive lore, and unique gameplay – it leapt off the page for us, and we’re excited to welcome the game to our growing family.”
