The beauty of cards is that they can be anything. You can slap together a working game with them in a couple of minutes. Take 12 blanks, doodle some faces and landscapes, and lo, you have a procedural narrative generator. Make some duplicates, invent a few rules and lo, you have systems.

Conversely, the great drawback of cards - especially in those roguelite deckbuilders people have been churning out since Slay The Spire - is that everything can be reduced to them. For example: last night, I played a round of Fungi with my partner, Fungi being a charming tabletop foraging sim in which you gather scrumptious chantarelles and boletus from the forest floor. This morning I resumed playing Breachway, out now in early access, in which you guide a starship through a series of wartorn solar systems, with battles unfolding as a turn-based exchange of cards corresponding to ship components.

Command your crew, customize your ship, and navigate a galaxy of danger, opportunity, and morally gray choices. With every run, you’ll encounter new challenges, unlock powerful upgrades, and forge alliances (or rivalries) with factions like the militaristic Solarii and the fiercely independent Free-roamers.

Breachway combines intense, turn-based card battles with deep strategic ship customization, giving you countless ways to synergize your crew and equipment. The galaxy is vast, and each journey brings fresh discoveries, unpredictable battles, and tough decisions that will shape the fate of your crew and the galaxy itself.
