This is a tentative recommendation from me for a game that seems to have gone under most's radar.
This game is a strong entry into the very specific... card-game-RPG genre, similar to Erannorth Chronicles. To be clear, it's purely a rogue-lite card game, but the cards you acquire you can freely switch in and out of between combats and (nearly) every card scales in effect based on your character stats, which you upgrade over time with gear and level ups.
The upshot of this is that your 'builds' are as much based on your gear and class and stats than the cards themselves, and there's a good degree of depth and satisfaction as you tweak and optimise your strategy. Some mechanics, like how 'classes' (and multiclassing) work, and like the Aura system (in which you have a limited set of slots - which you may increase with one of your stats - to slot in cards with purely passive effects, somewhat resembling 'relics/artifacts' or similar passive upgrades from other card games) help tie your strategy and build together. And on top of all of that, the game has a reasonably fleshed out meta-progression.
The reason why it's a hesitant recommendation is because... 'rough around the edges' barely begins to describe how minimalistic the game's qualities are beyond the core gameplay.
The English is serviceable, but not great.
Some cards don't adequately explain what they do at all (like some lightning attacks that give me a buff to my lightning damage without saying so on the card).
There's no use of tooltips to explain any language, buffs, or debuffs on the cards (what's the difference between 'armor' and 'barrier', what is 'deprived', what is 'cursed'?).
When buying cards from the store, you can't tell their casting cost or how many 'points' they cost to add to your deck.
The art direction is bare-bones, with odd resolutions, poorly-cropped outlines and I suspect a lot of UI elements and artwork cobbled from various sources with no overarching theme and little artistic consistency.
The music inelegantly loops, or at least tends to play for 30 seconds, fade out, then start again a few seconds later, and the music is not... well it's not bad, but it's not what I would expect from a game like this.
If I had to compare this to one game (besides Erannorth Chronicles), it would have to be Dream Quest - a game with a similarly bare-boned visual and audio experience over a strong, well-realised gameplay loop. This probably is even rougher than Dream Quest, in many ways, but it's an enjoyable experience and hopefully will only get better.
