You play as Fortuna, a witch exiled to an asteroid for 200 years. Seeking a way back to the wider world, she makes a pact with a forbidden creature, setting events in motion as other witches begin visiting her.
Create a tarot-like deck by combining visual elements and meanings, then use its cards to divine visitors’ pasts, presents, and possible futures. Your readings and dialogue choices affect how you advise them and influence their stories.
As Fortuna reconnects with her coven, the narrative expands from personal encounters to the society’s political future. Choices shape relationships and events across a branching story, with later sections adding campaign decisions alongside the card-reading and conversations.
Players who enjoy the game often praise the creative tarot-card building and readings, the choice-driven story, and its distinctive characters, pixel art, and music. Several describe the narrative as emotionally affecting and appreciate seeing choices influence characters and outcomes. Reactions to the later political campaign are mixed: some find it an engaging change of pace, while others say its shift in focus and pacing weakens the story. Some also criticize replaying for repeated text and card-making, or wish for more romance options.
