March to the Heart is a tactical deckbuilding videogame set within a dying body. 

Command the immune system’s last hope to fight a disease. Expand your deck and make sacrifices to make your way through an increasingly infected world were each attempt provides a unique set of choices leading to the heart.

March to the Heart explores how replayable game experiences can be created through the combination of card mechanics of deckbuilding roguelikes with territorial mechanics of dudes-on-a-map style games like Risk.

From a game design perspective, March to the Heart represent a genre innovation in a relatively young medium through its combination of deckbuilding mechanics with  tactical board game mechanics.
