User reviews & Ratings

April 2025
The gameplay in Oaken, centered around a hexagonal grid, offers a blend of tactical depth and roguelike elements. Players must carefully balance their resources, unit placement, and strategic decisions to overcome challenging enemies and bosses. The branching map system adds a layer of replayability, encouraging players to experiment with different routes and strategies. However, Oaken is not without its challenges. The difficulty curve can be steep, especially for n00bz. While the "Relaxed" mode provides a slightly more forgiving experience, the game still demands a high level of precision and planning. Some players might find the early stages overwhelming, as the tutorial, though comprehensive, may not fully prepare them for the intricacies of the gameplay.

Awesome tactical deckbuilder Roguelike, the best of it's genre Id say. Only con is runs are 2 hours + because of all the decisions. If you liked Into the Breach it scratches the same itch by being more deckbuildy.
