Original Steam description
Carol and the Bells: A Cozy Strategy Game is a turn-based strategy roguelike Minesweeper-style game set on a snowy night.
The game is played on a small grid-based board, where every tile is drawn from the deck you build.
Before each level, you choose and construct a deck that determines what may appear on the board — rewards, tools, and unexpected events. As you explore, you must use hints to infer where enemies might be hiding, decide which tiles to reveal, how much risk to take, and whether it’s time to ring the bell and leave safely.
Resources gained during exploration can be spent to acquire new board elements and upgrades, allowing you to shape a strategy that fits your playstyle.
There is no single correct path. Play cautiously or take bold risks — and enjoy this quiet Christmas adventure.
