Global gaming company Gravity has officially launched the mobile version of its new roguelike deck-building adventure game, Shambles: Sons of the Apocalypse (hereafter referred to as "Shambles"), developed by EXLIX, on March 27 across global markets.
Shambles is a game that uniquely combines elements of text adventure, card deck-building, and roguelike genres. Set in a post-apocalyptic world 500 years after its collapse, players take on the role of an explorer emerging from a bunker to journey across the surface. Along the way, they will encounter numerous choices that impact not only the storyline but also the character state, equipment, stats, and exploration paths. Each decision acts as a branching point, resulting in vastly different gameplay experiences and narrative outcomes for players.
Combat is turn-based and card-driven, requiring players to use their action points wisely while considering enemy moves for maximum strategic impact. With over 300 cards and more than 200 types of skills and equipment, players can devise different tactics for each expedition.
Prior to its official release, the game's excellence was recognized early on, winning awards at various game showcases and ceremonies. The title has received recognition at the 2023 G-STAR Indie Game Awards, was named "Game of the Month" by Korea's Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, won top honors at the Busan Indie Connect (BIC) Festival, and ranked first in user ratings and Top 10 at the Google Indie Games Festival.
The mobile version of Shambles is a paid game available for purchase on Google Play and Apple App Store. The game is priced at USD 6.99, and seven downloadable content (DLC) packs offering expanded content are also available for additional purchase within the app. A demo version is currently available on Steam, with the full version planned for release in the near future.
Yoo Joon, Head of Console Business at Gravity, said, "Shambles is a highly anticipated title that has received favourable reviews at various domestic and international gaming events and contests even before its official release. We invite players to immerse themselves in the game's original post-apocalyptic world and enjoy the thrill of strategic card-based combat. The mobile version also introduces seven DLCs featuring new regions, stories, and content—so we hope players around the world will show their support and interest."
