Our take on Mareld

Players who expect to steer every moment of exploration may bounce when placing Character Cards on Scenario Cards triggers exploration automatically. The described exploration system is card-led rather than based on direct movement.

What is Mareld?

Mareld is a card-driven roguelike role-playing game set in the Lost Forest.

Place Character Cards on Scenario Cards to trigger exploration, or combine Character Cards with Item Cards to create new items. Recruit characters encountered during the journey and form a team to explore the world together. Exploration can bring encounters with enemies, and players build their characters to face these adversaries. Defeating enemies or exploring provides rewards that can be combined to make items and dishes for strengthening characters on later adventures. As the journey progresses, players encounter people and events. Choices lead toward finding a way home, while the world also holds secrets to uncover.
