Tapis

Tapis is a score-chasing roguelike that blends three pleasures: the luck of a draw, the strategy of chess-like placement, and building a poker hand that carries over from run to run. A tabletop game with a single goal, a higher score every time.

TAME THE TABLE

Every turn, the table fills with tokens, each with an effect that depends on its position and its family. Trigger your mover tokens to swap, push and reposition the pieces, and turn a simple draw into a cascade of points.

Then hit score. Tokens fire one after another, multipliers stack up, and the history shows where every point came from. A single well placed token can take a board from a few dozen points to millions.

EQUIP YOUR HAND

Five playing cards make up your gear. Each grants an action to rearrange the table and a passive bonus you keep from one run to the next. Line up a flush, a pair, a straight, and your poker combinations empower entire families of tokens. It is up to you to build the perfect hand.

MANY PACKS, COUNTLESS STRATEGIES

Hundreds of tokens spread across themed packs: forest, river, sea, sky, mountain and more. Each pack brings its own wildlife, flora and mechanics. Play with multiple packs simultaneously to invent your own style.

Take the sea. Its tide tokens pull the water up from the bottom of the table, one row at a time, and the sea pulls back with every new draw unless something holds it. Some creatures grow stronger the deeper they sink, others wake up as the water recedes. How high you let the tide rise is up to you.

BUILT TO REPLAY

Clear six worlds in pursuit of the best score, then replay them in prestige for greater challenge and rewards. Take on the infinite mode and climb the leaderboard, or face the Survival mode.

In Survival mode, the table becomes a battlefield. Waves of creatures pour in, from a lone skirmisher to a five strong onslaught, each with its own nuisance: one gnaws at your charges, another siphons your points. Your score is your only weapon, so hold out as long as you can.

The next draw can change everything. Go all in.
