Talespinner is a deck-building roguelike adventure set in a captivating realm steeped in the exotic and bizarre tapestry of Japanese mythology. As the storyteller, you will guide your chosen hero through an ever-changing narrative shaped by your decisions and deck construction.

Each character has its own distinct gameplay mechanics and a powerful set of cards that can be upgraded as you play. From there, you’ll face off against a variety of yokai, each with their own diverse set of skills. How to deal with them is up to you. Crush them in decisive combat or make them your allies through charm and cunning. Whenever you start a new run, you’ll need to choose a scenario that will determine the location and the types of enemies your hero will encounter.

We’ve got a public demo out now, where you can play as Gyokushin, 1 of the 3 unique characters who will feature in the final game. We’d love for you to try it out and give us your feedback by leaving a review, letting us know in the Steam Forums, or following the link at the bottom of this announcement to join our Discord.
