About Across the Obelisk

Across the Obelisk is a dynamic deckbuilding roguelite RPG that you can tackle solo or cooperatively with up to three friends. Everyone controls a hero in combat, but the group has to think as one, weighing tough choices together, like whether to help farmers fend off a band of fiery demons or dig through the ashes for tempting loot. That shared decision-making runs through the whole adventure.

Building your party is a big part of the appeal, with 16 unlockable characters to mix and match. Each hero comes with distinct cards, items, mechanics, stats, and strengths, so a fire wizard plays nothing like a shadow mage, and choices like fielding two healers versus a damage-focused lineup meaningfully change your approach. On top of that sit more than 500 upgradeable cards and 200 items, opening up builds around poisons, bleeds, defensive tricks, and countless combinations tuned to each hero.

A procedurally generated system keeps the adventure evolving so no two games feel the same, sending you down branching paths, into events and quests where your decisions steer the story, and up against powerful bosses in tactical combat. As an indie adventure, RPG, and strategy PC game, Across the Obelisk is built for high replayability and the question it keeps asking: would you dare to go across the obelisk?
