What Are We Cooking?

Rootknot Logo
Rootknot gameplay

A fast-paced deck-building roguelite where you as a juggler banish demons to rescue your troupe. Armed only with your juggling skills and a magical lasso gifted by the mysterious Wak Wak Tree, set out to rescue your scattered troupe of performance artists to perform at the king’s long-awaited wedding.

During the combat, items are thrown into the air. You must react quickly, improvise, and grab the items to create powerful combos, all while gathering relics, materials, and new items for your base. With its blend of skill-based action, strategic builds, and creatures inspired by lesser-represented cultural tales and folktales, the game offers a fast-paced experience with rich lore and strong replayability.

We are in the early stages of development and excited to share our progress with you. We have regular playtest sessions on our Discord server. Join us and provide us with your feedback to bring Rootknot to life!
