You stand on the edge of life and death - in the Netherworld, where few earn their way back and most are lost to the darkness. Yet even here, hope whispers in the void. Death herself offers you a deal.

Will you dare to draw the cards... and face what lurks beyond the shadows?

Your fate is in your hands - play wisely, or be claimed forever...

Nice 3d take on card game!

very interesting card gameplay like this!

Sorry bro, but you sucked so much GPU you set off my UPS. You need to set the frame rate to 60 not let run as fast as possible. That is what causes the GPU to be over worked

Seems complex, couldn't figure it out how to beat the first opponent even with the tutorial. Very dense rules. No auditorial feedback in-game, which makes understanding what's actually happening pretty difficult.

Well done! I loved the aesthetic, enjoyed playing a game of card against death herself

The artwork on the cards is quite impressive given the timeframe. Nice work.

great game!

The card art is fantastic, it's a shame it clashes a bit with the UI. If you make them consistent, it would be especially beautiful. The gameplay is also interesting, although the mechanics were a bit difficult to grasp at first. Also, my fairly powerful PC got incredibly hot and noisy while playing your game. But otherwise, great job!

Really pushed my GPU limits, my laptop got so warm that I don't need to switch on the heater haha (would be useful in winter...)
Apart from that, very nice-looking and good atmosphere!

Really cool idea and I loved the card art. There's a lot of card games out there but this was a great twist on it!

Cool card game.

Beautiful graphics. That's all I've managed to appreciate. Unfortunately, your game freezes. The 3D graphics consume a significant amount of RAM.

I love the graphics! Can't wait to try the game!.

I like the design of cards

tyminix9 Oct 2025, 20:35

Good first try, however optimalization almost made me quit before the start. design of cards is amazing, mechanics of card game not so much. The mood and vibe of the game is great.
