Deus Cards by Watermark

 
In the near future, two scientists Sidney Terrail and Kalman Svabo made a psi-circuit laced card game combined with mini robots called Deus Cards, hoping it would tide them over till more "serious" business appears. To their surprise, the game is a hit and soon evolves into a worldwide phenomenon with competitions rivaling that of the Olympics.

Today is 5 years later the previous events: a twist of fate introduces newbie player Gus Hunter and his best friend Jacob O'Neal onto the world stage of Deus Cards. Thus begins a tale of friendship, adventure, and awesome card battles!
 
 
Deus Cards is an unusual Rpgmaker game that blends card collecting with some classic rpg aspects and battles. It's a custom made system originally inspired by the anime 'Angelic Layer' by CLAMP,an anime about a girl playing a battle game using mini robots on a machine called the Layer. 
 


Random Fact:
the game was originally made with Rpgmaker 2000 in 2004, and then reuploaded as a new edition made with Rpgmaker 2003 in 2015. The old version can still be downloaded from the link below.

 
 
Final Verdict: an unique game, it's just a pity that the Story Mode is a prologue with a tutorial attached and nothing else. For the rest I can really appreciate the attempt to make something different!
