The Fortune Cards are a collectible within Gigantic as well as a key feature of the game. Each card has a task which, upon its completion, will award the player with Prestige and Crowns , as well as reveal a part of the lore.

Cards are divided by category – a card may be based upon the world – Major Arcana, or upon a HeroMinor Arcana. Cards further are dived by sets of 3 rarity types, which reward player with a designated amount of Rubies with completion:

  • Common – +50
  • Rare – +100
  • Legendary – +300

Overall amount of all available in the game cards, counting all rarities, is 549. Player can have a hand of maximum 7 cards to complete in a time. To get a new card player should make a draw. Draws can be obtained through a couple of different means:

With each draw, the chances of receiving a Rare or Legendary card increases. However, the chances of receiving a card that has not yet been completed decreases.

Trivia

  • Fortune Cards are based on famous Tarot cards, which are often used in divination and other esoteric practices. This can be seen in “arcana” terms, numerical order and some of the titles – both actual and seen only as code names (such as “the Hierophant”, or “the Beast” replacing “the Devil”).
  • Oru, one of the heroes of Gigantic, is deeply related to Fortune Cards in various ways:
    • Oru is an Eternal that specializes in seeing the future – the cards are his primary instrument, as well as the weapon: “Judgment” for BURN
      Deals damage over time.

    • Oru was originally designed as an NPC who looked like the crystal ball through which players could “see into the future,” and from which they draw Fortune Cards. He would then react to player's picks with various responses.[1]
    • An entity on “the Jester” card resembles to Oru, who is referred on card's lore notes as “the Seer” – his name as the member of Eternal pantheon.
