I feel like everything is a rogue like deckbuilder now.

Rogue-like: Randomly generated levels, high difficulty, ‘run’ based with very limited continuity between runs. (Generally, items and resources gained on a run are lost when the run ends, usually there is an exception that lets you improve some aspect of your character for the next run)

Deckbuilder: Actions, movement and/or abilities are controlled by randomly drawing power cards from a deck. Spent cards are move to a discard pile. When your draw pile is empty, shuffle the discard pile and move it to the draw pile.

During the game, cards can be added and removed from the deck, allowing the player to tune their decks for a desired playstyle.
