Oaken adorable turn-based roguelike artwork and logo

Following in the footsteps of games like Slay the Spire, Oaken is a turn-based, card-slinging roguelike set in a world inhabited by all sorts of cutesy nature spirits. Each run will have start by choosing your basic loadout and abilities, after which you'll be let loose to explore the world, fight an assortment of enemies with a combination of spells and spirits, and naturally, upgrade the power level of your cards to the point of absurdity.

What all of this looks like in action, as well as how adorable the art style really is, that you can check out through the recently posted trailer. Have a little peek:

If you're still not sure where exactly you stand with Oaken, it's well worth mentioning that there is a free demo available. Given that this is a roguelike we're talking about there's a fair bit of content to explore in the demo, so if you're even remotely interested in these types of games, I'd highly recommend checking it out as it's a nice bit of fun.

You can do so, as well as read some of the player reviews before making any sort of decision, over at Steam. Enjoy!
