Headup :

Düren, Germany - July 25, 2024 — Today, alt-indie publisher Headup and South Korean developer Dvora Studio (formerly Devespresso Games) are announcing a publishing agreement for Dvora’s dungeon defense title, Vambrace: Dungeon Monarch. Set for a late 2024 release on Steam’s Early Access, a demo is available to play right now.

The game challenges players to unleash the power of fantastical card decks to launch devastating magical attacks and summon deadly heroes and monsters alike to do battle. Aspiring Dungeon Monarchs can assail their foes with lightning bolts, fireballs, and more while strengthening their troops to deliver (or survive) extra damage!
 
Deck-building, dungeon defense, and tactical gameplay combine in Dvora Studio’s Vambrace: Dungeon Monarch! Recruit warriors and wizards, buff your heroes, and thrash your foes — summon your dungeon’s overlord to punish interlopers and defeat enemies to increase your power!

Utilize your strategic deck of cards to unleash devastating magic spells and summon formidable combat units onto the battlefield. Annihilate your foes with lightning bolts, fireballs, and barrages of arrows while buffing your troops with damage boosts, morale boons, and protective armor. Observe as your units join the battle, decimating intruders with their unique abilities.
 
Features

  • A unique combination of deck building, dungeon defense, tactics, and auto-battling

  • Cards and units can synergize to increase their powers. Tactically plan to make the most of these synergies and send your enemies packing!

  • Once on the battlefield, your units will attack on their own, but as their leader, you can move around the dungeon to make the most of their ferocious fighting abilities!

  • Construct towers and other buildings to speed troop summoning and unlock additional features

  • A fun, fresh, and fiendish art style in 2.5D

  • Random events boost the game’s replay value

  • Various ways to play the game with 20+ synergy types based on the units you choose. Will you use the Vampire Legion to dominate the dungeon? Or maybe the Steel Legion or Undead armies? 

About Dvora Studio
Previously known as Devespresso Games, Dvora Studio has been an indie game development company located in Seoul, South Korea, since 2015. Our debut title was The Coma: Cutting Class, a run-n-hide school horror adventure game that was self-published on Steam. Its success marked our studio as one of the first generation of successful South Korean indie game development teams and led to our expansion into consoles and additional games, including Vambrace: Cold Soul, a rogue-lite adventure game with an expansive narrative.
 
Dovra Studio prioritizes narrative flow and a sense of adventure-to-challenge in their games. Vambrace: Dungeon Monarch is set in the studio's deep fantasy universe and features a multi-layered design for a gameplay experience unlike anything they've tried before.
