About the Game

Every soul shall face judgment.

After death, the dead cross the River of Duat and arrive at the land of judgment.

You are the witness of death, the arbiter of souls, the one who decides their final fate.

Among them are liars, murderers, the regretful, and those who deny their sins even in death.

Open the Book of the Dead. Use the Mirror of Truth to uncover hidden clues and contradictions, and seek the truth buried within chaos.

Your choices and judgments will shape both the fate of each soul and the stories that follow.

The Scales Debate

Judgment is not a simple matter of good and evil.
What is truly weighed is the soul itself.

Use abilities and cards to influence the balance of the scales within limited turns. Obsession, denial, and curses become weapons in the debate. Use truth, conviction, and the power of order to break through deception and falsehood.

Even the gods themselves may intervene and judge your worth.

The Ever-Changing Underworld

Conflicts between ancient gods, forgotten laws of judgment, wandering souls...

The deeper truths hidden within the underworld will slowly reveal themselves.

And every judgment you make may alter the future of the entire underworld.
