In this solo game, you were born with a curse of misfortune that follows you wherever you go. You are also a suitable vessel for the deities—kami—living all around you. Help them overcome their challenges and gain their aid as you face your fate.

Portent is intended to be played with a set of tarot cards. The campaign will include a tarot deck featuring all the kami from the game as a Major Arcana.
Portent is being written and developed as we speak. The cover you see right now is a preview and not the finished result; a clear preview of the game book with matching tarot deck will be ready by the time we launch! It is my first time writing a game while preparing for the campaign at the same time, but Pocketopia is just once a year and of course this idea only came to me in February haha. Rest assured that I've got this <3 (see my previous Kickstarters and Backerkits)
