Cartomancy Anthology goes free on Steam, handing out 22 tarot-themed games to keep for good - eGamers.io

The offer went live on Steam today, marking a surprising 100% price drop for a collection that was previously sold for $24.99. Unlike most free games on the platform, Cartomancy Anthology comes with no cash shop or microtransactions attached.

22 Unique Games

Each of the 22 games in the anthology stands on its own as a complete experience, created by different studios united by a common tarot theme. The project, funded with $30,000 raised on Kickstarter, was released in 2022 and has maintained a 94% positive rating on Steam.

The collection has been compared to UFO 50, a critically acclaimed 2024 release that featured diverse gameplay experiences across multiple entries.

No Clear Reason

The move to free has come without explanation from the developers. Unlike typical free game promotions, there's no anniversary celebration or monetization strategy behind this giveaway.

The collection was originally intended for consoles as well, but the Kickstarter campaign fell short of funding for those ports. The free release could help expand its audience beyond PC players.

How to Claim

Players can download Cartomancy Anthology permanently from its Steam or itch.io store pages at no cost. There's no deadline, allowing users to explore the 22 games at their own pace.
