Games Like Sandara

Sandara is a story-driven roleplaying deck-builder set in a desolate desert where survival hinges on strategic card management.

You are old enough now. Old enough to leave the Isle of Children. Old enough to understand Elderspeech. Old enough to be a productive member of society. Old enough to move to the Monolith.

Your assigned Elder will teach you how to earn your keep. Work diligently, meet your quota, and keep your head down. The City knows your every action, sees your every move, and listens to every whisper. Do not fail it, or it might just end up devouring you.

Sandara: City of a Thousand Eclipses is a card-based, story-rich RPG set on the mysterious Monolith, one of the few habitable places in the vast and unforgiving desert of Zamen. Usually, the Monolith upon which the City of Sandara is built, is asleep, appearing no different from a mountain. However, every eclipse, when the scorching desert hunger, the gray rock awakens, transforming into a gleaming blood-red jewel that feeds upon those who have not proved their worth.

Go forth, youngling, and work your way upwards. Forge alliances, uncover the secrets of the strange desert world, and remain vigilant if you hope to witness the next eclipse.

Influenced by deck-builders, Sandara: City of a Thousand Eclipses uses cards to provide players with a captivating and immersive adventure. Craft cards corresponding to your personality type and play them on the field to earn experience, money, and resources. Chart new areas and complete quests to combine cards and make your deck stronger.

The City of Sandara houses characters from three districts – Barren, Midway, and Sanctuary – each with its own distinct characteristics. In one district, lush plants flow from glass balconies, while residents face scarcity and barter for necessities in another. Which path will you choose? Who will you side with? Your destiny awaits, influenced by the companions you select.

Venture further and free yourself and the people of Sandara from the ties of the slowly sinking Monolith. Unveil uncharted territories and reveal long-forgotten secrets.

Soon, you will uncover your special gift: the language of children – Minortongue, which remains with you even after mastering Elderspeech. Delve into the mysteries of the Monolith, where the souls of departed children seem to linger on in the city.
