Synopsis

You materialize in a mysterious realm where a titan who goes simply by the name 'Mr. T' welcomes you. "You have returned to the afterlife, I see." Without much explanation, your adventure in this dark and gritty dungeon begins. Face off against bats, snakes, and even the shadows as you work your way to the end of this forsaken world, and earn your right to reincarnate once again!

The word 'Anamnesis'

It refers to memories from past lives. In Anamnesis, the cards are your 'memories'. Each run, you can choose your starter deck of 10 memories. Every time you finish a run, whether you win or lose, you can keep one. Will you remember what it takes to beat the game?

Learn From Your Mistakes

In Anamnesis, each boss has a unique approach to defeating it. A boss may have a shield that only goes away with fire, by dispelling it, or just waiting it out a set amount of turns. The unique combo system also provides special boosts that are character-specific and helps to balance those runs where you didn't get the ideal setup that you wanted. This makes each successful playthrough a fulfilling experience, and on runs where you lose, you'll eventually learn why and come back even wiser!

Less RNG, More Strategy

Unlike other games, Anamnesis focuses more on strategy than RNG. Even if you didn't get the cards you needed to dispel that boss's shield, your combo system has you covered! Each character will have unique memories and boosts that are suited for them to approach every obstacle in the game. This means that defense as well as offense are both important tactical decisions. It's not all about RNG!
