What it is

This is a surreal horror card-battler where players combine organs to create weapons and fight dream-world enemies. It features a collage art style and a psychological narrative.

The catch

Generative AI art is used throughout and clashes with the game's handmade visuals.

Why it is here

It is here because it sits in the band this site looks at: well reviewed at 94% positive, but with 1,508 reviews, far fewer than the household names carry.
