- Role-playing (RPG), Strategy, Turn-based strategy (TBS), Hack and slash/Beat 'em up
Inspired by tarot and fantasy, all bets are off as you create your own journey by building a collection of cards used to deal out a boardgame-like dungeon teeming with enemies, treasure, and adventure. Upon entering combat, the cards come to life as the player is propelled into a beautiful 3D environment to brawl it out with foes. Draw your cards, play your hand, and discover your fate. In a lonely cabin at the end of the world, a nameless wanderer sits down across from a mysterious figure known only as the Dealer. Shuffling a deck of cards, the Dealer conjures an ever-shifting journey through dungeons, monsters, and strange encounters, narrating each turn of the adventurer's fate. As the hero ventures deeper and grows stronger, it becomes clear that the enigmatic Dealer is far more than a simple storyteller. To see the tale through, the wanderer must survive every trial the cards deal and ultimately confront the Dealer himself.
