Shownotes

In this episode, we’re thrilled to explore the world of genre-blending with Frank Cheng, CEO of Apeiron, the innovative Roguelite x RTS Card Game that’s pushing the boundaries of strategic and action-packed gameplay. Aperion combines the thrill of real-time strategy with the strategic depth of card games, inviting players to step into the battlefield with a powerful Avatar and up to four Apostle companions. Each character brings unique skill cards to the table, creating a dynamic deck that players draw from and use in fast-paced battles requiring quick reflexes and tactical planning.

Apeiron also features an infinite roguelite dungeon, challenging players to see how far they can venture based on their chosen Avatar, recruited Apostles, and equipped Artifacts. Success in this dungeon depends on both strategic foresight and quick thinking as you adapt to real-time challenges.

In our conversation, Frank shares the inspiration behind Apeiron and the journey of merging these genres to create something truly unique. We dive into how Aperion balances the excitement of roguelite exploration with strategic, card-based mechanics to deliver an experience that’s more action-oriented than most card games yet more strategic than typical roguelites. Whether you’re a fan of strategic RPGs, card games, or real-time battles, this episode offers insights into the future of genre fusion in gaming and what makes Apeiron stand out.
