I'm not normally into deck building games but this one is quite interesting. In Deck of Haunts (free Demo on Steam, release set for first quarter 2025) you play as a haunted house and your goal is to kill or drive insane any human visitors to your forsaken realm.
This is accomplished through a combination of building additional rooms in your house and playing cards during your turn. The cards have a variety of environmental effects as well as causing physical and/or mental harm to the invaders.
The demo is pretty short but it was enough for me to add this to my wishlist.

Kinda looks like a card based version of the Tecmo's Deception games.

Re: Deck of Haunts
Been on my wishlist for awhile. Mostly so I can keep track of it. I'm in no rush to pick it up. Love the idea though.
