Tsukucchau Ojisan opened the Steam store page for Taboo Village: Romance Card Game on September 2. The roguelite has the protagonist playing a life-or-death card game with kemono-eared girl Tama-chan in dreams; losing means never waking. The game is based on Gin Rummy with route selection and card upgrades. Release is scheduled for the first quarter of 2027. It is a significantly polished version of the free browser game Taboo Village: Strip Card Game, which drew 10,000 plays within three days of its April release.
The store page went live on September 2, and the game is described as love comedy crossed with traditional village horror. The protagonist moves to a mountain village, picks up a strange creature, and from then on plays cards each night with Tama-chan in a strange room in his dreams.
The card game groups same-number or consecutive cards to calm curses, and roguelite systems add route selection, card adding and removal, and special effects. Collecting specific cards earns bonuses and abilities like drawing the cards you want. The release is planned for the first quarter of 2027.
