Arcana

One deck. Several monsters. Escape the house.

Each turn, play a set of minor arcana cards onto the table in front of you. 

They will sum up to a card in the major arcana. Discover the power of the major arcana as you play cards. 

Monsters will burn your cards, sapping your life. Do not run out of cards. 

Good luck.

This game was really awesome! The sound effects were freaking funny made me laugh every time a monster appeared! Great presentation and the whole mechanics were something really interesting that I have not seen before! Great Job in making this game! 

I had 480 cards in my hand and the game crashed, i love it

Phew! This was hard. Had to go for some lucky rolls where I used Lovers to deal damage and got just enough (9+7) for a Tower finish! Awesome work!

Nice, getting that clutch victory is satisfying 😎 Glad you enjoyed!
