Story and Gameplay Mechanics

The gameplay relies on card-based mechanics featuring branching paths and multiple storylines. Conflicts offer several methods for resolution, allowing players to choose between diplomacy, stealth, or direct combat depending on their preferred approach. The soundtrack is composed by Christoph Héral, known for his work on Rayman Legends.
