Vinculum is a fast-paced, easy-to-learn card battler built on real math. Use incredible mathematical tricks and combos to get out of even the toughest traps. Come back from debuffs, break enemy lines, stack functions ad absurdum. No limits, maybe just a little computer melty.

And if math cards alone aren't enough, you can always resort to more... arcane cards.

Plan your next move to be sure. And if math is so unbelievably crazy that you can't believe your eyes, you can even check with an external math engines!
