A deckbuilding mini-MMO where cheating is legal. It's not an exploit you found, but the cards in your deck. Argue that their armor never covered that spot. Forget to deduct a hit point. Call the safety word on a strike you saw coming. The Frog of the North sees everything, says nothing and sends the bill later. Combat is a LARP field with a rulebook. Your gear is your deck: every piece of equipment on your body decides which cards you can play. Poison coats your blade before the fight. Potions are cards that spend the real item out of your bag. Every enemy draws its cards from the gear it is carrying: the sword beating you is the sword you are about to take off its corpse. No levels, no scaling, no big numbers. You have between 5HP and 12HP, and the biggest hit in the game is 14. 400 rooms, 23 regions, 5 classes, and a seasonal faction war between Light and Darkness. A free demo is out now on Steam: eight of the 23 regions, two of the five classes, single-player, about an evening long. The full game launches November 5, 2026.
