Takara Cards is a roguelike deck-builder where you create a Cadet and search for the legendary Space Dragons who stole from the Federation! Choose from four unlockable races, each with its ship: The fearless Dwarves , the intuitive Humans , the mystical Orks, or the glamorous Elves! Build your deck while exploring the Cosmos, and choose from a handful of Maneuver and Equipment cards earned in story events, level-ups, and stores. Unlock new races, and create new characters and strategies: Earn extra XP in combat by doing a chain of COMBOS! Plan and make your turns never end: Defeating a wave of enemies recharges your batteries. You might even resort to using your whole ship as a weapon! Choosing what’s your starting reputation can be as important as your choice of cards: What’s your Reputation? Are you a fast learner, a Proud Genius? Business comes easy for you, maybe a Born Seller? Are you a gifted pilot, something like a Naive Prodigy? Keep in mind Reputations aren’t permanent and are passive of change through events in your journey. Your response to events influences your reputation and deck: Karma will be generated during your interactions. Say you respond in a blessed way… you’ll get blessed Karma and Reputation! You rather be a badass ? Guts Karma is out there somewhere in the Cosmos! Buy authorized equipment from the Guild or not-so-official ones from the Pirates. Smuggled equip cards travel around the galaxy and you could end up as a mule... You might be able to steal cards if your reputation of Thief turns up, but be aware: Your chances of being caught are also defined by your Karma! Play cards in a DEEP, PUZZLY, and chill turn-based combat. Over 140 cards and 40 units! Create your character by choosing species, cards, and reputation! Your Deck is your Pilot and your Ship: Build it by venturing through the Cosmos and Events. Synergize between dozens of UNIQUE cards to clear the board of enemies in ONE turn. Destroy enemies and recover resources that can be exchanged for various supplies - or use them as ammunition! Exoteric Karma system that influences your Character and Events. Events with voice acting inspired by tabletop RPGs. Hand-painted artwork inspired by 80's anime! Lore and strategies are accessible within the game in the Codex! 

Press reviews: “Takara Cards looks like a 1980s anime and plays like FTL with cards.” PC Gamer “Takara Cards brings something new to the table. The more you dig into the gameplay, the more you’ll get out of it, even if it takes much more commitment than you may be ready for.” 8 – Console Creatures
