Soulblaze
A downloadable game for Windows
Welcome to Soulblaze!
Grab your bindshards and go on an adventure. This game is a creature collecting and dice rolling rogue-lite. Fight your way through three regions and their bosses, build your team as you go, find items and techniques, and become the strongest animancer!

How To Play
- Pick a path on the map and try to reach the boss
- On Grass nodes, you can fight and capture wild animon
- On Duel nodes, you get to fight another soulbinder (no catching but more exp and loot)
- On Vending Machine nodes, you can buy items
- On Heart nodes, you heal your party or get 5 potions
Combat:
You roll dice and drag them on your techniques to pay for them. You can do this in several steps or turns, you don't have to pay a "4" technique with a 4 roll. You can pay with a 1 and 3, for example. Some techniques have different tags which can influence how you spend your dice. Hover over a technique to read the details.
If you have animon with technique types other than "normal" (Fire, Grass, Water), you want to change your dice on the map screen by clicking on the dice bag. If you pay a technique with a different color dice then the cost only goes down by 1 instead of what you rolled (e.g. dragging a blue water die on a fire technique). Normal-types are the exception, they take any die color.
The enemy will respond with a retaliation move whenever you execute a technique, and when you roll new dice. Some techniques might alter that (e.g. sneaky techniques)
Using an item or switching is free, the first time per battle, but then costs +1 do use (by dragging dice on it)
Items:
- FDs are Flashdrives that can teach an animon a technique. Not all animon can learn all techniques, so check who can learn what.
- Marbles: Those are permanent buffs, like trinkets, that you can collect. See your current marbles in the top left corner (hover for details)
