About This Game

Powerful plays tire your fingers. Heavy moves raise cramps that limit options until you recover, turning every play into a tradeoff: burst the boss down now, or conserve for a longer fight. Corruption creeps across the map, tempting you with potent rewards while it twists the dangers you face. Choose artifacts, shape your hand, and push deeper into the map where the rules stay simple, but the choices never are.

Pure Rock, Paper, Scissors Combat

Combat is built around immediate, clear choices: pick a Sign, punish the right target, and capitalize on mistakes. Bait and counter - it’s Rock, Paper, Scissors elevated into tense, combo-driven duels.

Build Your Hand

Cards change how Signs behave and interact. Collect, upgrade, and combine cards to craft a hand that solves the problems enemies throw at you. Each upgrade brings you closer to greatness.

Mind Your Moves

Big moves hurt your fingers. Every heavy play increases cramps and reduces options until you recover, forcing decisions: spend big for a win now, or pace yourself for survival.

Magic at Your Fingertips

Corruption offers massive boons at a cost, and artifacts bend the rules in unexpected ways. Be smart about what power to grab - and when it’s best to resist the temptation altogether.

Key Features:

  • Rock, Paper, Scissor Combat. Simple rules, where each Sign counters another, forming the core of every encounter and shaping all deck and strategy decisions

  • First Person Deckbuilder Roguelike. Experience the tactical depth of a deckbuilder as a duelist, not a person slamming cards on the table

  • Customize Your Hand. Each card can have up to three modifiers. Combine it right and turn your gestures into nukes

  • Play in Style. Pick your faction and solidify your play style: deliver heavy damage with Scissors, play defensively with Rock or stuck buffs with Paper

  • Reach Into Corruption. Corruption disrupts the game, bringing the fourth unbeatable element to the table. This power comes with a hefty price though

Eternity is at your fingertips. Can your hands handle it?
