About Mateforge

Mateforge is a single-player chess roguelike deckbuilder. Command an army of chess pieces, cast powerful spell cards, and survive an ever-collapsing board across an endless run of battles. Each round the board crumbles beneath you — capture every enemy before it does. Between fights, draft upgrades, recruit and merge pieces, forge your deck, and grow stronger for the boss waiting ahead. FEATURES - Chess meets roguelike — pieces move by real chess rules, but the board falls apart every turn - Build your deck — craft custom decks from 29 spell cards: lightning, meteors, freezes, teleports and more - Evolve your pieces — defeat bosses to permanently evolve your army through 3 tiers of power - Merge & recruit — fuse pieces into stronger ones and expand your squad - Boss battles — face bosses with shields, swift moves and spawning, scaling in difficulty - Daily challenge — a new rule-bending mutator every day - Meta progression — earn shards and unlock permanent perks that carry across runs - Endless runs — no two are ever the same - 6 languages — English, Türkçe, Deutsch, Français, Español, Italiano How far can you get before the board swallows you?

What’s new

Version 1.2.0 · Updated September 2, 2026

Mateforge just got a lot bigger. - 15 NEW CARDS — from cheap removal to game-ending legendaries. The pool jumps from 29 to 44. - ASCENSION — a new difficulty ladder for endless mode. Each level stacks a tougher rule (fewer resources, faster crumble, tougher bosses). Clear a level to unlock the next. High tiers add Permanent Losses: fallen pieces don't come back for the rest of the run — your call whether to face it. - 9 NEW RELICS — economy, tempo, defense and card draw. The relic pool goes from 6 to 15. - 3 NEW BOSS ABILITIES — Regenerating, Cursed and Fortified bosses keep the late game dangerous. - HOW TO PLAY — a new illustrated guide, shown automatically on first launch and always available from the menu. Thanks for playing — good luck out there!
