MOMENTS FROM NOW AND LIGHT YEARS AWAY...

On the planet Tarot, the new religions flourish. But all who dwell in that occult world, still worship the timeless Tree of Life as the one supreme god.

Now this primitive culture is being haunted by apparitions from the mystery-ridden deck of Tarot -- by Animations who destroy minds and take human life. Can this horror be their Deity's ultimate challenge to his people?

A young Earthling adventurer is sent to find the answer. Alone he dares to conjure a Tarot Animation, penetrate its awesome domain -- and risk being trapped through all eternity -- within the mystic borders of the ancient cards.
