KartomantiK is not a trading card game, purchasing this set you get all the cards of the game!
Kartomantik is a strategic two-player card game that moves away from traditional annihilation goals, focusing instead on the deep understanding and assimilation of the opponent's soul. Each player’s deck is a faithful mirror of their inner self, where every card and its Temperament represents a fragment of that soul.
Game Contents:
300 Unique Cards, distributed across:
5 Base Temperament packs (50 cards each).
A Meta-Temperament pack (50 cards, containing Hollow/Transcendent
Manifestations and Multi-Temperament/Hollow Wills)
A 60 pages Rulebook, featuring an introductory comic to immerse you in the world of Kartomantik, along with the rules.
Gameplay
The game unfolds through shared turns, revolving around the "Confrontation"—an intense exchange where the Cartomancers' souls are measured against each other. Every clash begins with the simultaneous revelation of a First Manifestation, representing an impulse, a fear, or a passion. To actively shape this dialogue, players utilize "Wills" cards, which are acts of pure intention capable of altering the course of the Confrontation.
When a player prevails in a Confrontation, they assimilate the opposing Manifestations into their "Empathic Vessel." Their own Manifestations may return to their deck or be placed in the "Interzone," from which it can impact the game long-term.
The game ends when one player's deck has been depleted. The winner is the one who has accumulated the most points in their Empathic Vessel, thus proving they have more deeply understood the inner self of their opponent.
Playtime: 30-60 min
