Watch DOG WITCH's Release Date Trailer!

DOG WITCH is being developed by solo dev Heckmouse and publisher Mystic Forge. This upcoming roguelike deckbuilder follows the story of the pup of an evil mastermind who accidentally becomes sentient and sets off to foil its former master's plans!

Here's what developer Andy Runyon (or Heckmouse) had to say about their game,

I started working on DOG WITCH in late 2019 with the goal of capturing the feeling of mastering a deep, punishing game like Magic: The Gathering and distilling it into something that plays like an approachable arcade experience. During this time, I've been very lucky to have a single tester, my mom's retired husband, a chess and bridge player with no nerd game experience, to shape the game just by gauging his pure, caveman-level-gamer reactions to things. A lot has changed in my life since then, but I remained obsessed with card game mechanics. Yes, there’s a cute dog, and yes, you can pet it. But the game is about mastery.

Here's what you can expect from DOG WITCH:

• Roguelike deckbuilding with dice-driven gameplay.
• Customise the dog with various furs, bark, "chonk" level, and hat.
• Various combos and effects to add spice to battles.
• Over 150 items that randomise in-game that can be mixed and matched.
• Corrupted versions of the items that add extra power but more risk.
• Various dog witch hats that introduce a unique twist to the game.
• High-paced and high-stakes battles.
• Short runs for an accessible jump-in-and-out experience.
• Quirky enemies, like a questionable vending machine and gun-wielding Russian Dolls.

Check out the release date trailer! DOG WITCH is set to launch on the 5th of November on Steam.
