Hyperspace Deck Command

Hyperspace Deck Command is a sprawling deck-building roguelite set in a war-torn galaxy consumed by the Gold Plague. Developed by Sleeper Games, it challenges you to command a vast space fleet—deploying ships, managing resources, and unleashing devastating technologies across multiple orbital lanes. Every ship has its own turn timer, and every card you play shifts the rhythm of the battlefield.

Hyperspace Deck Command gameplay – fleet combat deckbuilder

Rather than simple card duels, Hyperspace Deck Command operates like a full-scale fleet simulator. You’ll mix strategic planning with real-time adaptation, using hundreds of modular tech cards—from nimble strike fighters and shield projectors to experimental doomsday weapons that bend the laws of physics. Each decision counts: playing a single card can accelerate an ally’s cooldowns, provoke enemy counterfire, or change the flow of an entire battle.

The twist? Dual-use status effects. Cards behave differently depending on whether you target an ally or an enemy, forcing constant tactical improvisation. Do you use your fuel card to boost your own engines—or ignite an opposing ship in a blaze of plasma? This flexibility makes Hyperspace Deck Command feel alive, unpredictable, and endlessly replayable.
