About the game

What is Sins of Mordred

On your journey through the underworld, every turn, you choose from three cards with full-page illustrations: one to discard, one to put on the bottom of the deck, and one to play - to face the encounter hidden behind the illustration. Text on the flip side will tell you what happens – based on your current condition – and what changes you shall write into your character sheet. You will try to get rid of points of your “sins” during your journey.

You will be finding lot of interesting equipment and strange allies on your path and encounter lost souls of various knights and desperate creatures.

The game is very easy to play, though not easy to win. It focuses on narrative, trying to conjure immersive, almost cinematic experience, while the tactical element isn’t that high. Replayability element is medium – not so high as in a usual non-narrative dungeon crawler, but at the same time much higher than in a common gamebook.
