Unravel the tangled mysteries brewing in Clearcastle
Having just opened up your Foreteller's shop, you must do your sacred duty and solve the troubles of your wayward customers. Do you console them or give them a rude awakening? Encourage their dreams or make their fears come true? Use their soul stones and your own magical rune fragments to reveal their fate and choose their future actions!
Puzzling Rune Magic
Use your fortune fragments to create magical runes on your board. These runes conduct your power to see into the future, but you have a limited number of turns and redraws to achieve your goals. As you use your powers, you’ll unlock more powerful runes and new fragments you can use!
The customers' souls form different obstacles for you. Sometimes it’s about gathering energy from the board aspects, sometimes it is about revealing things hidden in the darkness.
There can also be sides and aspects that aren’t visible at first glance. You may need to try again, as you learn how the board will react to your actions.
The Citizens of Clearcastle
Since you'll be interacting and helping the people of Clearcastle every day as a Foreteller, here is a little about the cast of characters you’ll meet when playing Fortune Fragments. This is only a taste of what’s to come, so if you want to meet the rest, you’ll have to become a full-time Foreteller!
Agatha: An old woman who happens to be your landlady. Cheery and a huge gossip, she’ll help you get settled in to your new place.
Basil: An eccentric young man with a bright smile. Though he’s a bit naïve, he’s well-meaning and tries his best in everything.
Leo: A curious fellow who stumbles into your shop in distress. You take him under your wing, but whether or not you trust him is up to you.
Crow: Caw caw caw caw cawcaw caw caw caw. Caw cawcaw caw caw caw caw caw!
Matheus: A rugged but kind man who’s having troubles at work. Seems like he needs a gentle push in the right direction.
Catherine: A young woman on hard times, trying to reach out to someone who can’t speak for themselves. It’s hard to get a read on how honest she’s being.
Julian: A hopeless romantic tangled in his own hangups. His dates seem pretty alright though!
Amelia: Shy and kind, this young woman is being pulled in multiple directions by those around her. Help her find what path to follow.
Carmen: A member of far-off nobility and trying to climb even higher up the ladder. She’ll ask you for a few favours.
The rest you’ll have to meet yourself in the full version of Fortune Fragments! Who do you think will be your favourite?
