Twilight Tides : Mirage Journey

A text-based romance game revolving around the turning Wheel of Fortune tarot card!

Twilight Tides: Mirage Journey, a narrative romance title built on the creative concept of Tarot Subconscious Choices, is complete!

This work adopts a dual-timeline framework set on a shattered, far-future post-apocalyptic Earth with cutting-edge technology, alongside a parallel timeline escape dungeon themed on the Southeast Asian Theatre of World War II. Centered on the heroine Quan Shui Furong, the story follows her encounters with multiple male leads as it unfolds a tale of time plunder, star-crossed love, and tarot fate.

The game weaves its 100,000-word fate-driven narrative entirely through Tarot Subconscious Selections, with tarot motifs guiding every twist of destiny. It is an honor to cross paths with you—no fate is set in stone beyond your choice, yet every path we take is itself a thread woven into fate’s tapestry.

Story Synopsis

Beneath black holes and fractured realms lies a glossy utopia masking a brutal apocalypse. Our laid-back heroine Quan Shui Furong watches the time and memories of everyone around her steadily erode away. By chance, she stumbles upon an ancient temporal system that holds dominion over humanity’s collective attention. A string of intertwined fates ties her to three male rulers of the primary timeline: Poseidon Hualan, sovereign of the Azure United States; Apollo Baimo, leader of the technologically advanced Firmament Federation; and Hades Yechen, ruler of the Stygian Empire. This archaic temporal system harbors a staggering secret buried deep within its core.

Beyond the main world’s timeline, the system seeks to consume and erase Furong entirely. It casts her into a chaotic wartime escape dungeon, where both realms advance in parallel. The gears of fate are forced into unyielding motion within this dungeon, grounded in the brutal, authentic historical backdrop of WWII’s Southeast Asian campaigns—where hundreds of thousands lost their lives. Different escape routes leading to distinct destinations in this parallel dimension bring her face-to-face with each of the three men in turn.

Thrust into uncharted worlds for the first time, tarot cards bind life, death, and fate across timelines. This dual-realm structure delivers a tarot-fueled romance centered on fateful choices, laying bare the cruel, unescapable grind of fate’s gears… holding up a mirror to intimate bonds and the lifelong journey of self-discovery.

One lifetime equals ten thousand lifetimes; one lifetime equals endless descent into despair. We all seek the resolution to this single life—and if we fail to find it, ten thousand cycles will repeat the same suffering. The temporal system endlessly devours memories and years. The utopia’s glittering veneer cloaks the festering scars of the apocalypse. Every choice laid out across the tarot spread is merely a worn path fate has replayed countless times. Stripped of her past and forgetting those she holds dear, Furong traverses the Azure United States, Firmament Federation, and Stygian Empire, weaving tangled romances with the three lords of the main timeline. Every fleeting spark of love amid the chaos of the Southeast Asian wartime dungeon feels like a recycled echo of past cycles. The ancient temporal system feeds on the collective attention of all living beings. Trapped within this looping mechanism, we struggle to love and fight to survive, desperate to carve out a path to freedom amid the black hole-shattered world. Yet the tarot has long foretold the truth: until we pierce through our obsessions with self and connection, reincarnation will never cease. The next life will bring the same agony, the same meetings, the same heartbreak all over again.
