Description
To save his wife, Kai has one shot: win the Trials.
In the wake of global collapse, humanity lives under the watch of Daisy, a mysterious AI that runs annual Trials to decide who gets medicine, food -- even the right to have children. Each year's Trial is different. This year, it's all about cards.
Armed with a vintage Polaroid camera, trialrunners must explore strange zones, take photos, and combine them into powerful cards. Forest, quarry, funfair, island, factory -- every new map brings fresh challenges. Every choice matters. And everyone playing is desperate to win.
Kai is sick. His wife is sicker. This Trial is their last hope. He isn't stronger than the others -- but he's more desperate. He and his wife are the last survivors of their sector, and the only way forward is through. As Kai advances, flashbacks reveal the life, love, and quiet lessons that shaped him -- and the values he's fighting to preserve.
Because the Trials don't just decide who survives.
They decide what kind of world comes next.
Card Crawler is a standalone dystopian deckbuilding LitRPG featuring:
