$19.99Into the Crypt Cards that fight and open doors
Into the Crypt is a first-person roguelike deckbuilder set across three shifting depths. You build a class deck from hundreds of cards, chain synergies and status effects, and use cards to unlock doors and chests while fighting strange enemies and phase-changing bosses, solo or in co-op.
Is Into the Crypt worth it?
Into the Crypt is worth it if…
- you like deckbuilders where every run drafts, upgrades and trims a new engine
- you want distinct classes with their own mechanics and combos to master
- you like planning co-op runs with separate decks and shared hands
- you like dark, tense dungeon crawls with bosses and branching paths

Small decks that turn into strange engines
You start each run with a class deck and grow it card by card. The Berserker banks Fury for explosive Overload turns, the Alchemist brews potions mid-combat from gathered ingredients, and the Druid feeds Offerings to Sheaf and Gob before swapping companions.
You upgrade selectively, imbue single cards, banish cards you never want to see again, and stack artifacts that reward how you play. Boss kills earn class-specific Depth Rites, so you either double down on your best combo or swerve into something new.
A crypt you walk through, cards in hand
This one plays in first person. You move down branching paths to merchants, treasure, minigames, and unsettling inhabitants with offers that catch up with you later. You drop cards to fight, and also to unlock doors, open chests, and crack breakable treasures.
Enemies read back: Protectors shield allies, Summoners call reinforcements, bosses shift tactics mid-fight. You read their intentions and pick which threat your hand can actually answer. Fallen players leave tombs behind, and you decide whether to pay respects or rob them for the cards they carried.
Good to know before you descend?
Can you play it solo or with a friend?
Both. You can descend alone or with one friend in online co-op. In co-op you each build a separate deck, can inspect each other's hands, and plan around what your partner can do.
How different is each run?
Very. The three depths are procedurally generated, with branching paths, over 70 choice-filled events, and daily delves plus leaderboards if you want a shared run to compare. Tombs left by other fallen players add another variable: new loot, new decision.
What else helps you survive besides cards?
Over 200 items including potions, active artifacts, and secrets, plus ally assists and combat brewing. You can also escape combat when a fight goes wrong, which matters when enemies bring their own passives and card actions.
