Build the deck that saves Tokyo!

Tokyo Valkyries is a challenging deckbuilding game where you create a powerful deck of cards and use strategy to overcome enemies and explore the game’s world.

—One day, an alternate world invading our reality, an Underworld, appears in Tokyo.

Only a set of chosen girls can stand against this anomaly.

These students live normal lives on campus, but at night, they transform into warriors who defend Tokyo from the dangers of the Underworld.

Can this band of girls leading double lives stop the encroaching threat…?

Construct your deck and wield it to defend Tokyo from the Underworld invasion!

Story

The world of Grand Earth, filled with swords and magic, was destroyed by Belzebia, a powerful and evil spirit.

I never thought it would happen, but her power started leaking into our world – a world where magic isn’t supposed to be real. It was like a shadow spreading, and honestly, it was a little scary!

Haruka Fuchi, a college student in Tokyo, hears a desperate plea for help and unknowingly enters a bizarre and unfamiliar place.

She found herself in the Underworld, a realm created by Belzebia that exists between the physical world and Grand Earth.

In the shadowy world below, Haruka encounters a girl named Artesia.

If the Underworld is not sealed and Belzebia stopped, the world will be led into annihilation…

Now aware of the threat facing her world, Haruka would venture into the abyss of darkness with her allies.

Turn-Based Card Combat Where Every Choice Can Sway Your Fortunes!

The game features turn-based card battles where you build your own unique deck. Each character has one of four Attributes – Resolve, Courage, Hope, or Dawn – and will act whenever you play a card matching that Attribute.

While it’s your turn, you’ll see what your opponents are planning to do. This information is key to deciding whether you should attack or focus on protecting yourself.

Winning depends on figuring out what your opponent is doing and then using your strengths to attack and protect yourself.

Select Your Own Path to Progress to the Boss and Seal its Underworld!

During a run, players will find seven different types of tiles on the map. These include Battles against normal enemies, Elites for tougher challenges, Shops to buy cards and items, Cafes to regain energy or improve cards, Lockers offering random rewards, Anomalies that trigger unique events, and Bosses who guard the Cursed Swords.

The decision to take or skip the cards you see through battles and events is key.

Craft your own unique deck and venture into the depths to defeat bosses!

Listening to a Girl’s Instructions, Yank and Pull to Save the World!

To close an Underworld and stop its invasion, you need to remove its Cursed Sword – the source of its power – to purify the world. Just follow Artesia’s guidance to pull out the Cursed Swords.

These practices are simply meant to cleanse and purify, so please don’t misinterpret them or let your imagination run wild!

Pull One Out to Release the Girls’ True Powers!

If you find a Cursed Sword, it can significantly boost one of your team members. The character you choose will get an extra stat and become your party’s leader!

Girls chosen as leaders gain access to a super powerful special skill.

The combination of your party composition and deck building is the key to victory!

Characters

  • Haruka Fuchi (voiced by Yuki Nakashima) – A university student in Tokyo. Although she presents a cool and calm exterior, not exhibiting much emotion, on the inside she harbors strong passion. Because of her cold personality and (somewhat) stoic attitude, Haruka has always been relatively secluded, being seen by those around her as too good to be approached. Because of this, during her childhood Haruka experienced some sense of isolation. However, that does not mean she is bad at socializing. When relied on, Haruka can be kind and considerate.
  • Artesia (voiced by Moe Kakara) – A mage from another world. Artesia had been engaged in a solitary battle to foil the ambitions of Belzebia, fighting in the Underworld where our reality and alternate worlds intersect, when she meets Haruka and asks for her help. While normally an innocent and meek person, when it comes to the origins of her world and its impacts on Haruka’s reality, she thinks much more critically and gravely. Deeply respecting her elder sister Rozamia, ever since she was a child Artesia strived to follow in Rozamia’s footsteps. She came to Tokyo from her world in order to avenge her sister’s death at the hands of Belzebia.
  • Tsubasa Hikami (voiced by Mano Ayumi) – A student attending the same university as Haruka. Bright and cheerful, Tsubasa is the life of any party, always using her good-naturedness to make those around her smile. While she has a bit of a ditzy side, at her core Tsubasa harbors a strong resolve, not being one to easily give up. After having her interest piqued by Haruka’s way of doing everything on her own, Tsubasa began to frequently strike conversation with her, eventually becoming close friends. One of the very few people Haruka can open up to and speak her mind.
  • Anna Keijima (voiced by Eri Suzuki) – A student attending the same university as Haruka. A sociable and flashy gyaru. In contrast to her showy appearance, Anna is a caring person who deeply values her friendships. Obsessed with fashion and modelling, Anna shows understanding to people who also have things they are passionate about. Decided to pursue modelling after happening to come across a certain model’s photo shoot. Although her father strongly objected her pursuing modelling as a career, Anna managed to persevere and began working as an amateur model.
  • Mamika Kanesaki (voiced by Hikaru Iida) – A student attending the same university as Haruka. Hailing from an affluent family, Mamika is a prim and proper lady. Also academically gifted. Although intelligent and a critical thinker, her pride makes her bad at asking others for help. Due to her intense education, Mamika became a heavily result-oriented person. She respects her parents and their societal success, and works hard for their validation. While she is prideful of her prestigious background, Mamika is also fascinated by everyday people’s lives. Particularly, she enjoys unpretentious foods like instant noodles and junky snacks.
  • Raimu Shirogane (voiced by Rika Abe) – A student attending the same university as Haruka, in the year below her. Although she does not cross paths with Haruka and her friends often, Raimu is infamous in their university as an unhinged character. While usually well-behaved, Raimu talks to herself often and can take bold and surprising actions at times. A kind person at her core, Raimu has a fragile heart and becomes severely depressed at even small things. Due to having many negative social experiences, Raimu is prone to pessimism and is quick to shift blame onto others.
