Sovereign Syndicate is a card-based role-playing game in a steampunk style, but also with elements of classic fantasy. London awaits players, but in an alternate reality, where magic exists, various bizarre mechanisms, unusual creatures and much more. The player is allowed to move freely around the city, since the world is completely open. You can play as one of three available characters, and each hero has unique quests, its own plot, and other features, such as skills. The plot itself will be fully revealed only if you play for all the heroes, but this is only a wish, and not a mandatory action. In terms of gameplay, the game combines traditional RPG mechanics and a card system, for example in combat or dialogue.
