Summary: The narrative card battle RPG "Veil of Madness" developed by Storming Studios and published by Wandering Wizard has officially launched on the Steam store page.This work makes a new attempt at integrating narrative structure and gameplay, leading players deep into the interface between human consciousness and the unknown universe.

Veil of Madness was originally born out of the 2023 Dungeon Crawl Game Development Challenge, where it stood out among 170 entries.The development team Storming Studios has fully expanded and polished the prototype with its expertise in psychological horror narratives as its core.Publisher Wandering Wizard is responsible for global distribution, presenting players with an independent RPG with both narrative depth and strategy.

Players will start a journey from the perspective of a neurologist, enter a retro mansion filled with uneasiness and mystery, and explore the inner world of patient Sophia.Each floor symbolizes the psychological defense mechanisms Sophia has constructed to resist assimilation by the alien entity.Players need to face the inner demons and illusions hidden deep in her consciousness through strategic card battles.

The game uses a unique 3D pixel art style and immersive sound design to create an atmospheric experience with both a retro feel and a sense of spiritual dislocation.As the plot progresses, the player's character identity and psychological state will also change - from a bystander investigator to gradually understanding the transformation Sophia has experienced, the player evolves into a potential mediator between human and alien consciousness.

The narrative of Veil of Madness blends philosophical, psychological and mythological imagery.In Greek mythology, Persephone completed her identity transformation from human to "alien" after swallowing a pomegranate. The game uses this as a metaphor to construct a symbolic system of "alienation of human consciousness".

The game interweaves the outward exploration of alien races and the truth of the universe with the player's inward thinking about self-perception and identity boundaries, bringing players the delicate and profound touches on the universe and self in Lovecraft's "Over the Wall of Sleep".

"Veil of Madness" is now online on the Steam store page and has gained high popularity on the Little Black Box platform.If you are keen on plot-driven, psychological suspense or strategy cards, welcome to add to your wishlist and start a new narrative journey about sanity and madness, consciousness and existence.
