The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood is the latest game from Red Strings Club and Essays on Empathy developer Deconstructeam. Five years in the making, it’s also the artful indie studio’s most ambitious.

The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood is one of those games I wish got made more often. Rather than spending dozens of hours simply being ok, it chooses to spend what little time it has being fantastic. It’s the kind of game that sticks with you for ages after you’ve put it down.

The Tarot deckbuilding aspect is present and correct here, but the wide variety of Witches and the way their stories intertwine is where The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood really shines. Every being that you encounter has a purpose in this story, and all the threads twist together to make a truly beautiful tapestry. Being locked down narrative paths without the ability to return might not be for everyone, but it's a moot point when the story is this good — every playthrough will feel like a brand-new experience.

In a market with so many deck-building games, leave it to Deconstructeam to turn the paradigm upright and create a card-builder, a brilliant outlet for player expression. The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood is a stimulating crash course in coven politics of all kinds: identity, community, and straight up politics-politics.

Have you ever had your fortune told? I have, and the results were… hilariously mixed. From tarot readings from my school friends just learning to the craft (which lead to wildly outlandish results), to a self-professed genuine medium who read my palm (which turned out to be scarily accurate), to having my fortune told from a “real professional psychic” (who got absolutely everything wrong), there’s a lot of fun and mystique to trying to learn what the future has in store for us. But w...

I played through The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood once, but it’s clear that it’s a game with a lot of different paths and outcomes. Though fate may be determined, The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood’s ever-branching story has many conclusions.
