Arcana Investigations
Where tarot meets noir detective fiction
Step into the rain-soaked streets of a 1940s city. You are Vera Saint-Claire, a private investigator who uses tarot cards to solve mysteries others can't. Every choice matters. Every card reveals a truth.
A New Kind of Mystery
Arcana Investigations combines classic noir detective storytelling with the mystical guidance of tarot cards. As Vera Saint-Claire, you'll navigate a world of femme fatales, corrupt businessmen, and dangerous secrets. But unlike other detectives, you have a unique gift — the cards speak to you.
Choose your path through each case. Interview suspects, gather evidence, and when you need guidance from beyond, draw the tarot cards to reveal what the mortal eye cannot see.
