"I am a doctor dragged by circumstances to the western front of the Great War.

Day after day, I have to watch wheelbarrows full of victims brought to my door.

And yet, I was not prepared to face what awaited me when they brought that soldier's body to my table."

A misterious dead man. A castle where dark rituals are performed. A cosmic horror that is corrupting the world as it is. Even the Spanish Inquisition is involved. Would you be able to defeat the evil?

A Trench Tale is a narrative card game where you have to combine two cards at a time to generate new cards that represent steps in your investigation. You will have to relationate concepts to undercover the mistery.

There is an in-game hint system so you don't have to try every card if you are stuck!





Almost all of the images have been created with artificial intelligence. Most of them are from StableDiffusion although some of them are from older models.

The story is inspired by a real-life Call of Cthulhu role-playing game campaign that I mastered for my friends.

I hope you enjoy the game!

Outstanding! I love this style of story telling! Thank you for being kind and letting us carry on playing after death lol

Cool game! I liked the style and the music / FX. It brought everything together nicely.
