As you play, you'll unlock hidden secrets and content, evolving the game naturally through an achievement system tied to your choices and performances. With deck, bag, and pool building mechanics, you'll strategically upgrade your decks and release powerful combos, interacting with multiple locations and creating a unique ebb and flow to the game. With 60 to 90 minutes of playtime, you'll be fully immersed in the world of Bardwood Grove, competing for the most combined Glory and Fame to emerge victorious.
