9 Kings, a strategic roguelike deckbuilder with a regal twist, just hit Steam

Part empire builder, part roguelike deckbuilder, 9 Kings is certainly an intriguing proposition. Your pixelated kingdom needs to expand and defend itself against enemy factions, but instead of harvesting resources, growing your population, and teaching them new skills, its fate lies in your hands - your hands of cards, that is. Looking to become the next hit strategy game from Hooded Horse, the publisher behind the likes of Manor Lords and Cataclismo, 9 Kings has just hit Steam Early Access - and it's going down a storm already.
