Supernature Studio has announced that Lost in Fantaland will officially launch Version 1.0 on September 26, 2024, moving out of Early Access. The update promises new content, features, and quality improvements, though further details will be shared on release day. While the Steam version will release as planned, the console versions for Nintendo Switch and PS4/5 have been delayed due to ongoing negotiations with publishers. A new console release date will be announced later.

Lost In Fantaland

Lost in Fantaland is a retro-style tactical roguelite game, blending deck-building mechanics with turn-based strategy. The game’s unique feature is its checkerboard-based combat, set on an 8×8 grid where players can control one of three classes: Warrior, Mage, or Deceiver.

As players navigate the procedurally generated world, they must strategically manage action points to play cards from their deck, blending offensive strikes and defensive maneuvers in well-planned combinations. The environment is a significant factor too—terrain and weather conditions directly impact combat, adding layers of tactical depth that will challenge even seasoned strategists.

Beyond traditional battles, encounters also feature random events that offer a chance to gather new cards, items, and artifacts, continually evolving your deck with each playthrough. Designed for single-player campaigns, the game includes persistent upgrades between runs, enhancing replayability with its roguelite mechanics and dynamic maps. Since its initial release on Steam Early Access in September 2022, the game has been lauded for its intricate strategy elements and charming pixel art style. Below an overview, screens and trailer.
