Acheter Cards of Heart PC

Amalia, assistante d'une bibliothécaire dans la ville fantastique de Respite, affronte des Ombres nées de ses tourments intérieurs. Un wisp nommé Ljos lui confère le pouvoir de créer des cartes de lumière à partir du quotidien, transformant des tâches comme la pâtisserie de macarons ou les heures du conte à la bibliothèque en occasions de deck-building. Les joueurs collectionnent ces cartes dessinées à la main aux effets uniques, débloquent des quartiers de la ville via des quêtes et combattent les Ombres avec des stratégies inspirées de thérapies. Dans les duels de cartes, apprenez les schémas des Ombres pour les contrer par des chaînes de cartes, des réflexions ou des Techniques qui renforcent la main et dissipent les debuffs. Les défaites incitent à améliorer les cartes grâce à des pratiques d'auto-soin, tandis que les souvenirs révélés avec Ljos mettent au jour des souffrances passées liées à l'anxiété et à la dépression. Ce strategy RPG free-to-play s'adresse aux amateurs de deck-building réfléchi et de récits sur la santé mentale ancrés dans de vraies techniques thérapeutiques.




This is the story of a girl who faced her Shadows… who, in the face of darkness, found her light.

Amalia is a librarian’s assistant living in the small fantasy town of Respite who’s haunted by Shadows- dark beings born from her negative inner thoughts. But when a wisp named Ljos appears and gives her the ability to create cards of light from her everyday life, Amalia must use this power to face her Shadows and learn how to move forward while acknowledging the pain of her past.


Developed in consultation with clinical psychologists and therapists, Amalia's abilities in the game are inspired by real-life therapeutic techniques. Amalia’s journey highlights both the uncomfortable reality of living with mental health challenges like depression and anxiety and the power of finding ways to manage them.
