Unique Features
The story in this game progresses under the guidance of a game master (the person who controls the action in a tabletop RPG).The world this story takes place in, including all the towns, dungeons and fields, is represented entirely by cards, as the player moves avatars to go on their adventure.
The outcome of the battles and encounters at the many different places you visit, and even destiny itself, will sometimes be resolved with the roll of a die…
You can also play a new and unique card game at the Game Parlour in town.
Would you like to accompany the Game Master on a journey into the world of Voice of Cards, brought to life through beautiful art and music?
*This game is not a direct sequel to Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars or Voice of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden and can be enjoyed as a standalone adventure.
