Viabo Games, in partnership with Anshar Publishing, has announced that Sigilfarer: A Dice-Rolling Roguelite will launch for PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store on September 14, 2026. The title combines classic roguelite elements, RPG mechanics, and a dice-building system designed to offer an alternative to traditional deck-building gameplay.
The dice-building system serves as the game's defining feature, allowing players to create unique combinations of abilities for each adventure. Every die face can represent different actions and effects, giving players the freedom to develop a wide variety of strategies throughout the campaign. The design blends the strategic depth of deck-building games with the unpredictability of dice rolls, making every decision meaningful during both combat and exploration.
Battles unfold in turn-based encounters that demand careful planning from the very first move, as each fight begins with a dice roll that shapes the available tactical options. Players can assemble a party of up to four heroes, each equipped with unique dice that reflect their gear, abilities, and role within the team, encouraging diverse strategic approaches.
Character progression focuses on creating synergies through class-specific items and an inventory management system. Selected equipment can gain additional effects and new abilities that strengthen the entire party, allowing players to build offensive, defensive, or support-oriented strategies based on their preferred playstyle.
Each expedition features non-linear maps that constantly change, presenting a variety of biomes, unexpected encounters, characters scattered throughout the world, and hidden stories waiting to be discovered. Exploration also involves deciding whether to confront enemies directly or search for alternative routes, ensuring that every journey offers new challenges and opportunities.
Caravan management plays an important role throughout the adventure because every step forward drains the energy of an ancient magical sigil that protects the party from the chaotic forces consuming the continent. Advancing without careful planning can leave the adventurers vulnerable in hostile territory, making resource management just as important as success in battle.
The continent has been permanently transformed by the spread of chaos and magic, leaving behind ruins, inhospitable landscapes, and the remnants of ancient sigils that preserve forgotten power. In this world, wild creatures now inhabit lands abandoned by humanity, creating a dangerous setting that rewards players willing to uncover its mysteries and survive the hazards of every expedition.
