Build your deck. Defy the Author. Shape your ending.

You play a Vessel — a character drawn too well to erase. Build a deck of Frames, read enemy intent, paint elemental auras, and chain reactions into your Vessel’s signature Cinematic. Every seed reshapes the route: branching map layers, encounters, shops, companions, mutators, and story beats waiting at the edges. Choices are not just flavor; mercy, cruelty, and the people you keep close can change how the run ends.

Miss it and you lose it. Call all seven — shooting the moon — and you can win the whole game in a single hand. Two ways to play.
