About the Game

In the "Miasmic Abyss" engulfed by endless blight, former deities have corrupted into the twisted "Sunken Sovereigns." As the heir bearing your family's destiny, you must light the incense and forge perilous pacts with various gods. In this life-or-death gamble against the fallen divinities, you will employ ultimate strategy to build your deck, assemble supreme hands, and unleash tempestuous epic combos to keep your family's last incense burning!

A single censer of incense dictates life or death! Choose your divine power and dive into the abyss to defy mortal odds!

Consume "Incense" to pray to the deities and obtain rare "God Fragments." Imbue your hand with exclusive divine "Blessing" skills, vastly amplifying your cards' power in the deadly "Mu Shi" gamble.

Limited Steps & Fateful Choices！

Plan your optimal route within a limited number of steps! Make careful choices at each node to maximize your loot of cards and relics. Build the ultimate deck, crush the Sunken Sovereign at the end, win the gamble, and clear the game.

Pre-Battle Gambit & Style Combos!

Analyze enemy traits before the battle and strategically select "God Fragments" (which correspond to your battle hands). Assemble three fragments of the same style to activate "Style Combos"! Build the ultimate counter-lineup, maximize your defense and lethality, and start the life-or-death gamble.

Life-and-Death Duel: Strategic Calculation & Combo Explosions!

Calculate precisely in battle, cleverly synergizing your skills, God Fragments, and relic abilities. Through your ultimate tactical decisions, unleash fiercely satisfying epic combos and high-multiplier damage to obliterate powerful demonic foes in one fell swoop.

Shattered Barriers & Chaotic Deathmatch!

When both sides' barriers are destroyed simultaneously, you plunge into "Chaos"! Stripped of your barrier's protection, the rules of combat collapse. Both sides can deal direct damage to each other without needing combos, engaging in a primal, brutal, and extreme brawl.
