Sand Requiem

You play as a heroic adventurer who has narrowly defeated a powerful and malevolent mage after a long and grueling battle. However, with his dying breath, the mage casts a final, sinister spell, warping reality around you. The world blurs and distorts, and you find yourself transported to a vast and desolate sandy arena, an ancient battleground soaked in the blood of countless warriors. As you regain your senses, you realize that this arena is not just a barren wasteland, but a twisted creation of the dying mage's curse. The arena is alive with danger, constantly shifting and bringing forth increasingly powerful foes, each more formidable than the last. The mage, even in death, continues to torment you, conjuring these relentless enemies from the sands themselves. In this brutal and unforgiving environment, you must fight for your survival, facing wave after wave of deadly creatures, cunning traps, and ancient guardians. As you battle through the arena, you will uncover hidden treasures and gain the strength needed to confront the mage's final challenge. Mechanics: Push your luck, open drafting, Melding and Splaying. Gameplay: This game has five levels of Encounters. You must complete all five Encounters to win. Each Encounter consists of a number of rounds, the enemy and the player take turns to gather Energy and execute powerful attacks. —description from the designer
