Death Howl is a card game set in a dark, myth‑infused world where the line between life and the spirit realm blurs. You take on the role of Ro, a grieving mother on a desperate quest to reclaim her lost son. The game weaves a haunting, emotional narrative set against Nordic-inspired landscapes, from misty forests to surreal spiritual planes, each brimming with secrets and danger.

Death Howl features tactical, turn‑based combat combined with deck-building mechanics. Players craft a unique deck of over 160 cards, tailoring strategies around poison, strength, stealth, defense, and more. Every choice matters: movement and attacks draw from the same resource, demanding careful planning, precise positioning, and clever use of shamanic totems to survive challenging encounters.

Exploration is just as compelling, with 13 distinct regions teeming with restless spirits, hidden lore, and formidable bosses. Each environment offers branching paths, side quests, and opportunities to uncover fragments of Ro's tragic story. Mastering the balance between risk and strategy is key to advancing through this grim, beautifully crafted world.

With over 25 hours of gameplay, Death Howl offers a deeply immersive, melancholic journey where every battle, every choice, and every card played carries weight. It is an adventure that challenges both the mind and the heart, promising a unique and unforgettable experience.
