A tabletop-like roguelite where party wipes feel like a cursed board-game night.
For The King belongs in the roguelike conversation because its hex map, dice checks, party classes, co-op turns, chaos timer, and campaign unlocks make uncertainty feel communal. The run structure is what matters: it asks players to build a plan under uncertainty, then live with the consequences when the run turns ugly.
Example
