The Killing Stone

More about The Killing Stone

The Killing Stone is a deckbuilding card battler wrapped in a 17th century occult horror narrative. Players assume the role of a Maven, master of the dark arts, investigating the mysterious death of Mariken Svangård in a remote Arctic setting. The game features a ritual-based combat system where players negotiate with demons to secure souls through strategic card plays and branching dialogues. A living game board centered on the Fanghella (Killing Stone) allows for tactical creature placement, spellcasting, and bargaining to add boons and banes. The narrative unfolds in first-person with dual language options (17th century English and modern prose), supporting multiple languages for UI and text. Players must resolve family curses before the Devil's final reckoning.
