More about The Magister

The Magister is a murder-mystery card-battler RPG where players build and customise decks to engage in tactical combat or diplomacy. Players investigate their predecessor's murder in a randomly generated fantasy world, gathering clues to identify the culprit. Key features include randomly generated murder mysteries, card-based encounters with unique effects like 'Heartstopper' and 'Poison Slash', tactical diplomacy to reduce enemy rage, and character-specific traits such as cunning alcoholism or insomnia. Players have 14 days to explore Silverhurst, recruit allies like Mercenaries or furred companions, and solve the mystery before time runs out.
