Broken Arcana is primarily a tarot deck cooperative game about communication. Two players will face each other in a non competitive way and try to convey their innermost problems to the othe, in order to get help from them to repair said problems. However, identifying and recognizing your problems is such a hard task, that communicating it to a person within your support network can become even more difficult.
Broken Arcana is game about communicating what is broken within us, trying to understand and mend what is broken with the other player. This game could be a tool to communicate your problems, understand the other player or any number of other options.
You can play it as just a game or it can be seen as a more intimate way of interaction.
