About the Game

〈Zodiac Tale〉 is a single-player PvE auto-battler card game built around the twelve animals of the zodiac.

In this game, your builds can spiral into combinations no competitive game would ever allow.

Draft, summon, and stack the impossible with animals that keep growing stronger round after round.

EXPLOSIVE SYNERGIES

Unlike PvP games, where synergies have to be held in check, 〈Zodiac Tale〉 leans all the way into the runaway build fantasy.

Push your combo as far as it will go, and find out where it ends!

COMMAND THE TWELVE TRIBES

Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig — each tribe carries its own web of synergies.

Mix several tribes to chase unexpected combinations, or dig deep into a single one to complete a snowballing build.

But the strongest builds are always hidden where the tribes' powers overlap.

STAGES THAT REWRITE THE RULES

A new stage isn't just a challenge with more enemies.

Every stage changes the rules of the shop and the battle itself - how enemies fight, how synergies work, even what counts as victory.

Sharpen your roster each time you step onto a new stage, and build the strategy that only works there!

PLAY THE DEMO - AND WHAT COMES NEXT

In the current demo, you can meet the animals and unique synergies of six out of the twelve tribes.

From here, we're filling in the remaining tribes, deeper synergies, and the new stages that put them to the test - one at a time.

Add this to your wishlist and follow along to see how far this tale goes!
