About this product

Product Information

A turn-based strategy-RPG, Kartia: The Word of Fate presents players with two disparate, yet intersecting storylines: one as the shrine warrior, Lacryma Christi; the other as Toxa Classico, an arrogant knight. Having selected a character, players embark on a journey spanning 18 chapters, each of which is preceded by pertinent dialogue and FMV scenes, the former accompanied by character portraits from Yoshitaka Amano (best known for his work on the Final Fantasy series).<br><br>The titular Kartia represents the lifeblood of the world of Rebus, as it is from this that almost anything can be created. Prior to and during each skirmish, Kartia can be used to fashion spells, equipment, and phantoms by assembling the various elements each entity requires. Everything created in the game comprises three elements, which are the most sought after throughout the game: the necessary text, proper grammar, and the Kartia on which to write it (three forms of Kartia exist, namely, Silk, Mithril, and WorldTree, each more powerful than the last).<br><br>Phantom creatures, the foot soldiers of the piece, are aligned according to Common, Doll, and Shadow types, and analogous to the simple Rock-Paper-Scissors game, each fares better or worse against a one of the others. Although expendable in battle, phantoms will, like their human counterparts, gain in experience over time and increase in power and ability. The battlefields on which players engage the enemy are susceptible to damage, and excessive spell use will scorch the land, burn trees to the ground, freeze bodies of water, and deform the terrain. Additionally, players can trade items with a friend or compete in two-player versus competition using their save data from the single-player adventure.

    Came as described and in excellent condition. Was packed really well and was shipped next day by seller. Came with the previews guide as well and i wasn't expecting that! Just got done testing the game and it runs beautifully. Will be adding this seller to my favorites to buy from for sure! They were also 15 dollars cheaper than alot of other sellers who had the same game but in alot worse condition. Looks great!

    The cards were shipped very quickly! They were also sent in a box wrapped tightly in a plastic sheath and the box itself was also sealed in plastic. I'm very happy with how well the cards were packed. The cards themselves are just as described and shown. These are so cool and really affordable for something brand new and I would say is quite rare. Thanks! 💖
