Graphite

Graphite is a unique roguelike RPG where a child's hand-drawn fantasy world becomes the stage for tactical combat, profound choices, and a deeply personal story about coping and creation.

Gameplay

Master a dynamic timeline-based combat system where precise timing and interrupting enemy attacks are key to survival. Guide a party of heroes through procedurally generated runs, making critical story choices via a tarot-inspired event deck and building immense power through limitless, stackable artifacts that create unique synergies each time you play.

Story

A child known as The Scribe crafts a world from notebook pages to navigate personal grief. Within this pencil-drawn realm, seven distinct heroes believe they are on a noble quest to stave off an impending end, unaware they are fragments of the child's imagination. As their journeys intertwine, they begin to question the nature of their creator and their own purpose in a story much larger than they realized.
