About the Game

Rentcthulhuis a deck-building roguelike where you play as a Card Priest. The cards in your hand are no ordinary deck—they are fragments of "True Fairy Tales" torn asunder by the Great Old Ones.

Deep within the borders of a dark fairytale realm, the Great Old Ones have delivered a divine decree to you, a novice priest: If you cannot weave a logical web of "Causal Combos" (Score) within the time limit, this absurd forest will be devoured by eternal night.

As the Priest, you must start from the smallest suit connections, rebuilding the bonds between races. Stack your score amidst chaotic logic to bargain for the world's final glimmer of dawn.
