About the game
What you do in a play session
Here, players take on well-defined roles like mage, warrior, or monk, each with their own tricks and abilities. The goal is to progress along a board that looks like a quest map, and the way to advance is by winning tricks. Think of a trick-taking game supercharged with narrative!
Each trick won can yield rewards, especially if the cards played match your character's suit. These cards help improve your abilities and level you up, unlocking even cooler powers. It's a virtuous cycle of playing well to get stronger and face the challenges ahead.
The cool part is that you can split up along the path, explore branching routes, or stick together to face dangers as a group. You can even backtrack through some sections of the map to power up your character and ensure the party is ready for the final mission: finding the legendary GodBird and saving the world from a mysterious disease. It's a tabletop RPG disguised as a card game, packed with strategy and teamwork for those who enjoy a good story and a tactical challenge.
