WAR & PATIENCE

TURNING FATES

Classic card games evolved and played with the use of the Tarot.
Two modes are offered: 

A game of War now Strife, where every card you draw is a card your opponent won't. Stage one to three cards into your clash lane, weigh the elemental suit against what you know is left in the deck, and Clash against Fate.
&
A slightly more challenging Solitaire in two forms. One with specialized Major Arcana cards applying varied effects for and against you. The other a Free Play mode granting the Major Arcana their own Foundation to be fulfilled.

HOW IT PLAYS

STRIFE

First to five tallies wins the match.

- Player and Opponent draw from a single shared 78-card deck

- Stage 1–3 cards per clash. Higher total wins the tally; ties award nothing.

- Suits follow an elemental cycle: Wands beat Pentacles, Pentacles beat Swords, Swords beat Cups, Cups beat Wands. Advantage grants +1 to the card's value.

- All 22 Major Arcana carry a unique strife effect.

- Three AI difficulty tiers, from a scattered opponent to one that reads the tally gap and plays for it.

PATIENCE

- 9-column cascading tableau, built up by the same elemental cycle. 

- Stack a card within a column that's exactly one rank lower and whose suit beats the one it's landing on.

- All 22 Major Arcana have their own distinct powers in the Today's Reading mode, separate from their Strife effects.

- Today's Reading deals the same seeded shuffle to everyone on a given day; Free Play is unlimited and untimed.

- Step away and come back; an in-progress reading picks back up where you left it.
