Strategy meets action-combat evasion in a dark fantasy world full of difficult choices and fascinating characters
Hong Kong, China – August 19th, 2026 – Snako Production and Infini Fun are pleased to announce that their mold-breaking fusion of deckbuilding strategy and action-combat evasion, Golden Swirl, is coming to Steam on September 9th. Golden Swirl is a semi-real-time action card game where you control your character to dodge enemy attacks and reposition to strike back with your cards, balancing deck-building with tactical movement.
Move, dodge, and seize the perfect moment to play your cards amidst the clash of steel and magic. Utilize the timing of every card played to reposition and adjust your attack vectors. With four characters to choose from, each with their own unique starting relics and card pools, and over 120 cards and over 100 relics to add to your collection, you can forge unique builds tailored to match your playstyle and discover deep synergies to craft devastatingly effective strategies.
Explore 5 wildly distinct Acts, each guarded by formidable, unfathomable foes lying in wait. In these procedurally generated dungeons, you will meet maddened merchants and silent swordsmen with their own tales to tell. Every interaction and every difficult choice you make will sway the Golden Will, permanently altering your combat rewards and resource progression. As the Golden Will shifts, NPCs themselves transform — changing their appearance, altering what they offer in trade, and granting new cards that hit harder but come laced with negative side effects.
Golden Swirl is set in a dark fantasy world, scored to a rousing soundtrack. The deities have fallen after the “Great Dreamer” invaded the realm and the Black Moon twisted into a colossal Swirl poised to devour everything. You represent the last glimmer of hope: “The Nameless One”. You must step into the treacherous Golden Swirl and uncover the ultimate truth behind this apocalyptic cataclysm.
