Our take on Fortune-499
The corporate setting adds office routines to the fantasy role, but that choice limits the focus on combat alone. Players divide their attention between administrative tasks, fortune-based battles, and the unfolding plot rather than staying in one activity.
What is Fortune-499?
Fortune-499 combines corporate routines with magical combat.
Players take the role of a fortune teller in a large company’s magical resources department, handling tasks such as forwarding emails, attending meetings, checking email each morning, and fixing printer jams. Monsters are fought by predicting their next moves. Players also build a deck of fortunes and uncover a plot involving both magical and mundane elements. The character’s job is at stake while these office duties, battles, and story events unfold.
