DINO MERCS is a roguelite deckbuilding game. You take the role of a veteran member of a shadowy private military corporation called Dark Solar Defense. To survive, you will need to build a powerful deck of cards while conducting operations and engaging in fierce combat.

DINO MERCS is an arcade-style roguelite deckbuilding game where you play as a veteran member of Dark Solar Defense, a shadowy private military corporation run by dinosaur mercenaries. The democratic government of the planet Velraterra has fallen to the fascist forces, and you've been hired to scavenge and compete with rival mercenary groups. To survive, you will go on operations, engage in fierce combat, and defend your forward operating base from attackers. FEATURES: Strategic Deckbuilding: In order to survive and complete your mission, craft a powerful deck from a growing collection of cards. Multiple Playable Characters: Try out different cards and ways of playing by playing as one of three unique playable characters, with more to come! Fight Enemy Mercs: Fight 15+ different enemy dinosaur mercenaries, including Merc Killers, elite enemies that will test your limits. High Score Chaser: The game's infinite nature and arcade style of play allows for ever-escalating levels of power and challenge. Missions: Want a shorter, more focused play session? Missions are for you! Go on a mission and complete the objective while building a powerful deck and fighting enemy mercs.
