Description

Step into a world where the boundaries between reality and nightmare blur. Lore is a collectible card game (CCG) that brings together the best elements of traditional trading card games (TCGs) with a unique, resource-driven system. Set in the spine-chilling Lovecraft universe, Lore offers players a gripping narrative and multiple paths to victory.

Resource-Driven Gameplay:

Our innovative resource system offers strategic depth and flexibility, allowing players to manage their assets and devise complex strategies.

Multiple Victory Conditions:

Whether through sheer power, cunning tactics, or mystical prowess, there are several ways to claim victory, giving players the freedom to craft their own path to success.

Lovecraftian Setting:

Immerse yourself in a dark, gritty story where horrors from the sea and sky have plunged South America into chaos. The narrative unfolds as America battles to defend itself and ultimately flees to Europe for a final stand.

Familiar Yet Unique:

While inspired by classic TCGs, Lore evolves traditional mechanics into something new and innovative. Fans of classic card games will find a sense of familiarity while experiencing fresh and exciting gameplay.

The Premise:

Reports of horrors—monstrosities, cannibalism, and the undead rising—are pouring into the U.S. from South America. While many Americans dismiss these as the ravings of madmen, an ominous presence looms at the border, becoming harder to ignore, especially for those living near it.

Set 1

America scrambles to defend itself against these otherworldly threats but ultimately fails. The survivors, or at least the important ones, flee to Europe aboard the USS Salvation, where they prepare for the coming fight. The first set of cards will guide you through this desperate struggle for survival and the preparations for a new battlefront in Europe.
