Tarot Fiasco

Tarot Fiasco is a third-person exploration, first-person card battle game.

During the game, you must find 3 of your master's tarot cards that have escaped after you, the apprentice, accidently scattered the deck of cards. 

You will be learning how to use some of the tarot cards that you was able to keep and combine them in unique ways to capture the escapees.

Challenge yourself by taking on our unique exploration card game by playing, Tarot Fiasco.

Premise: 

Hidden away deep in the forest, is where the Master Witch and her Apprentice live inside their magical house. But one day the apprentice makes a terrible mistake and drops cards on the floor. But these are not just any cards they are tarot cards, powerful and dangerous. She quickly recollects them while the Master Witch lays down her wrath. However, three cards are missing. Evil laughter then echos the hallways of their house. The apprentice must use the other cards to find and battle the ones missing, will she succeed?

This project was created as part of a second year university brief at the University of South Wales, in association with Tiny Rebel Games. BA Computer Games Design and BA Game Art students were given the module brief... "When is a Card Game NOT a Card Game?". Teams were asked to make an 8 to 10 minute experience.

This module has been recognised for it's excellence with a Grads in Games 2022 Award for Collaborative Initiative.
