Description
-
Heart Of The Cards is a Yu-Gi Oh! inspired epistolary game about believing in yourself. It's designed to be played solo or with another player, depending on what game mode you choose. It requires Yu-Gi Oh! cards to play.
In this game, you are going on a journey. This journey will be chronicled either through letters home or letters to another traveler. Through affirming your belief in yourself and your skills, you are able to overcome challenges that stand in your way during this journey.
I originally wrote this game on commission. The client had requested Yu-Gi Oh! cards and affirmations as mechanics.
