About the Game

About This Game

One Turn Kill is a PvE card game focused on drawing and deck control. The system is centered around the thrill of drawing cards and the challenging condition of defeating the enemy within a single turn. Even just one slip-up may be fatal, leading to a suspenseful and unique play experience. Join the protagonist in a pixel art wasteland to face off with the strongest of enemies and see what story awaits.

Game Features

Unique system where draws cost:
Drawing cards from the deck costs card uses. Enjoy highly reproducible combos with abundant draws while also strategizing to avoid running out of cards.

Synergistic deck building:
Cards and skills differ in their compatibility. By skillfully combining them, you can achieve more powerful effects than when using them alone. Players can unleash a wide range of strategies using a deck limited to 20 cards. How you build your deck will determine whether or not you are victorious.

Speedy and suspenseful one-turn battles:
If you cannot defeat the enemy on the first turn, the enemy's counterattack will soon determine who wins. This condition allows you to enjoy tough battles requiring quick and precise action.

Visuals and Background Music

Using cards allows characters to move in sync with one another with rich animation. Enjoy catchy background music that matches the game's quick pace and lingers in your ears, creating an even more immersive gaming experience.
