Our take on DOG WITCH
Rather than treating dice as a separate luck mechanic, the game makes them the fuel for spellcasting and build construction. Its deckbuilding structure is also wrapped in dog customization, summoned oddball allies, and enemy encounters built around surreal comedy.
What is DOG WITCH?
Build a deck and cast spells powered by enchanted dice in short roguelike runs.
More than 150 magical artifacts, including corrupted variants, can be combined to create changing strategies and trigger spell, relic, and ally interactions. Summoned companions include laser ponies, armed rats, and skeletons, while encounters feature enemies such as Russian Dolls, Cat Ladies, and Vending Machines. Each battle presents a different tactical puzzle based on available combinations and dice results. Alternate dog hats introduce additional rules and challenges. Character customization includes fur, hat, bark, and chonk level options. Runs are structured around discovery, experimentation, and adaptation, with a wide range of encounters and strategies to revisit.
