Our take on Clonizer
Its defining structure is the pairing of hex-grid missions with a deck that develops during each procedurally varied expedition.
What is Clonizer?
Clonizer combines turn-based combat on hexagonal maps with roguelike deckbuilding.
Missions take place on planets made from varied tiles and alien groups. The Clonizer creates Clonees, which can scout, claim territory, construct buildings, and fight enemies. During an expedition, cards from themed departments can be collected and upgraded, while Clonees gain specializations and blueprints provide additional options. A procedurally generated galaxy presents missions, layouts, difficulty levels, events, trading encounters, and unusual characters. Each run involves choosing a route, developing a deck, managing cloned units, and adapting tactics to the battlefield. The game also includes unlockable cards, spaceships, customization choices, and higher challenge levels.
