As you move along the cards you will be told a story in which you can meet other characters, interact with the townspeople, and make decisions on where to take your character. Other decisions from you, the player, along with some luck will come into effect as you move your avatar across the face-down cards. Under each could be various things: a shop for you to buy food and weapons, a bridge where you are ambushed by enemies, or ultimately the card you need to progress the level. In the first few levels, you will have some cards The Dealer has dealt out in front of you, each face down. Although the game itself is entirely reliant on your decisions and random elements, The Dealer is always there to explain the game to you, but don’t be fooled, he very much wants you to lose. It’s unfortunate however that one of those elements drags the rest of the game down drastically.Īs the player, you sit in an ever-moving carriage opposite The Dealer, a cloaked and mysterious man who you will be playing the game against.
