GAMEPLAY

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Cards That Come Alive

Many cards launch their own interactive minigames mid-battle — sweep a minefield, match a musical note by ear, and more. Master them for a serious edge; fumble and you'll feel it.

Think Fast — Or Take Your Time

Each turn gives you just 12 seconds to act and there is a continuous HP loss over time. Not feeling the pressure? Pause anytime to plan at your own pace. Built for both the reactive player and the deep thinker.

Survival Game/RPG and Distance Based Travel

Travel Distances within the RPG in order to get to the next node on the map.

The RPG has survival mechanics such as thirst mana and hunger which need to constantly be refilled through Cooking or your run may come to an end.

The Hook, Your Survival depends entirely on your ability to mine ores ,find chests, cook and to win those card battles with minimum HP loss.

Build, Explore, Adapt

Craft a deck from a wide card pool, gather items and relics, and navigate a dynamic map where no two runs are the same. Every 25 the map jumps a tier
