## Description
Get ready for a fairy tale showdown like you've never seen! Twisted Fables is a frantic fighting game that takes classic heroines from stories, myths, and legends and throws them into a twisted universe, full of cyborgs, magic, and darkness. Forget the innocent versions you know; here, they are superpowered fables, ripped from their worlds to battle across bizarre alternate dimensions. What mysterious force has brought them together? Only the Weaver of Tales knows for sure, but we guarantee the brawl is on!

At the heart of Twisted Fables is the deck-building mechanic. Each warrior starts with a basic set of abilities, and throughout the game, you enhance them, learn new moves, and unlock devastating special powers. The cool thing is that each character has unique asymmetric strategies, and even the same heroine can have completely different fighting styles depending on your specialization choices. This adds a layer of tactical depth and surprise to each confrontation. The game is designed for two players in 1v1 mode, but with the 2v2 upgrade pack, you can call another friend for team battles. If you enjoy card games with lots of interaction and replayability, Twisted Fables is the right choice. The book has been opened, the fables have arisen. Let the fight begin!
