Iris and the Giant is a unique blend of card-based RPG, roguelike, and emotional narrative game for Windows. The story follows Iris, a young girl confronting her fears and inner struggles within a symbolic fantasy world. As she journeys through a mysterious labyrinth, she faces towering giants and shadowy creatures that represent anxiety and self-doubt.
Gameplay revolves around deck-building mechanics combined with tactical turn-based combat. Players collect and manage a limited deck of cards representing attacks, defenses, and special abilities. Strategic resource management is essential, as every card used is permanently removed during battles unless replenished. Between encounters, players unlock new cards and passive abilities, gradually strengthening Iris for future runs.
The minimalist art style and melancholic soundtrack create a deeply personal atmosphere. Rather than focusing solely on combat, Iris and the Giant emphasizes emotional storytelling and introspection. It offers a thoughtful experience that balances challenge with narrative depth.
