A birdwatcher discovers a mysterious feathered ornament in the forest. Upon touching it, she is transported to the Avian Realm, a world threatened by darkness. The ornament grants her the ability to communicate with bird spirits, who guide her on a journey to restore balance.



She must explore five diverse regions: frozen tundra, temperate woodland, desert, tropical rainforest, and continental highland. In VR, players traverse these landscapes, encountering birds and collecting their essence as cards. Each card holds unique abilities, forming a deck crucial for turn-based battles against the shadow.



Each region’s guardian bird spirit reveals the shadow’s origins. Through exploration and strategic battles, players uncover the fragile link between birds and their habitats. In the final confrontation, every card and lesson will shape the Avian Realm’s fate.



This VR card game blends immersive exploration, deck-building, and environmental storytelling, offering a journey into birdlife while highlighting the urgency of conservation.
