About This Game

«MORTAROT — a card roguelike where Death deals the cards, and the price is the same for all.»


A GAME WITH DEATH

Death waits at the table and invites you to play. You play only with her deck, and she deals the cards herself. It's yours to decide — which to turn over, and when to leave the table.

  • Draw cards from the spread, one at a time

  • Take what's yours and go one circle deeper, or tempt fate once more

  • Pass twelve circles and walk away alive

  • Lose, and start over — the runs are short

    KNOWLEDGE BEATS LUCK

    Here knowledge is worth more than gold. Death won't catch off guard the one who can read the table.

    • Peek at a face-down card without risk

    • Guard your candles — don't let them go out

    • Snuff out Death in the spread, clear away the dangerous cards

    • Remember the price behind every advantage

      THE MAJOR ARCANA

      The deck is built on the twenty-two Major Arcana. In the spread they promise more than other cards — but their power is paid for in full.

      • Every Arcanum reshapes the rules of the run

      • Amulets and relics found along the way shift the whole run

      • No two runs are ever alike

        NO ONE STAYS SILENT

        The mistress of the table wearily gloats over anyone who dares to risk it all, while the hero bitterly recalls what brought him here.

        • Death speaks to you — taunting, watching, waiting for your mistake

        • Hand-drawn engraving style: candles for lives, Death's scales, her ledger

        • A twist you'll only understand at the very end

        «Cheat fate. It will be waiting for you again.»
