Ritual: The Card Game

Ritual: The Card Game has players take on the role of initiates in a mysterious 1970s era cult. Collect 9 ritual items to complete your dark agenda and become the Master of Two Worlds!

Ritual is a 2 player competitive strategy game. Players must collect 3 cards of each Ritual type: Relics, Resources, and Knowledge. The first player to collect these 9 Ritual cards wins the game. In addition to Ritual cards, there are also Supernatural Aid cards and Obstruction cards. Supernatural Aid cards allow players to perform certain advantageous actions, such as viewing the top 3 cards in the deck and selecting one. On the other hand, Obstruction cards hinder the player’s progress in some way, such as forcing them to return a Ritual card to the discard pile.

This card game was a solo project that I designed the core mechanics and fiction to. The game features a mix of chance, skill, and mystery.
