Roguebook from the developer of Faeria is now released for Linux

Abrakam Entertainment SA along with publisher Nacon have released Roguebook their deck-builder roguelike for Linux. The Linux release follows on from the original Kickstarter campaign in 2019 (that had Linux noted as a platform) where they raised €66,810. It released on Steam for Windows in June, with macOS following in July and now in August we have a native Linux build too.

"The ancients speak of a Book written since time immemorial containing all the world's legends. After many fabulous adventures, recounted in Faeria – Chronicles of Gagana, this relic was lost in a well of Faeria. Through contact with this source of magic, the Book developed a wicked free will of its own and became the Roguebook!"
