About the game
Die Tore der Welt: Das Kartenspiel, a card game version of World Without End, takes the basic mechanism of the big game and breaks it down to a game with 90 cards. Each turn an event card is flipped that defines available player actions. Players collect stone, cloth, piety and medical knowledge to score victory points. The game is played over two chapters, and each chapter is played in 12 rounds. At the end of each chapter, players have to meet certain requirements which are not exactly known beforehand to avoid negative points. The player with the most victory points wins.
