EON – Summon the Rift

EON – Summon the Rift is a tactical, grid-based card battler that blends the depth of strategy RPGs with the dynamic nature of deckbuilding.

As the summoner, you command powerful units, cast spells, and manipulate the battlefield with constructs—all while being the central figure in combat. Your decisions shape every battle, but beware: if the summoner falls, the fight is lost. Traverse a richly crafted world, engage in intense strategic battles, and build your own unique playstyle with a diverse array of cards.

Key Features

  • Tactical Grid-Based Battles: Engage in strategic, card-driven combat on a grid, where each move and card play can turn the tide.
  • Tactical Key Character: Your summoner is comparable to the king and queen in chess. They are your biggest strength but also your one and only weakness.
  • Dynamic Exploration and Combat: Seamlessly alternate between exploring the world and engaging in battles.
  • Diverse Card System: Utilize a variety of card types, including Unit, Construct, Spell, and Relic cards, to shape your strategy.
  • Persistent Summoner Health: Summoner damage carries over between battles, adding tension and stakes to each encounter.
  • Different Unit Types: Command different unit types – Melee, Ranged, and Self-Destructing – each with distinct combat roles.
  • Constructs and Movement Shortcuts: Use constructs like portals and windpads to dynamically alter the battlefield and movement strategies.
  • Buffs, Debuffs, and Relics: Enhance or weaken units through strategic card play, and equip relics for permanent bonuses.

RULEFACTORY
The board game company from eastern Switzerland.

Rulefactory Digital is an informal subsidiary of the physical game forge Rulefactory established in 2024. In contrast to its parent company, Rulefactory Digital aims to create digital games with boardgame mechanics. Pierre Lippuner is currently Rulefactory Digital’s sole developer and artist.

Rulefactory on the other hand was established as a game studio for the physical card game Frantic in 2015. The studio was founded by Fabian Engeler, Stefan Weisskopf, Pascal Frick and Pierre Lippuner and has released multiple physical card and boardgames over the years. 500,000 copies sold, three official and one unofficial expansion have been part of the Rulefactory’s palmares to date. The next card game ‘Jetriko’ and its own gin followed in 2021. After funding their first physical board game ‘Library of Jakkarth’ in 2023, they now work on new board game projects and their first video game, EON – Summon the Rift.
