Gnostica is a complete rework of Zarcana which retains the theme and core mechanic, but feels very different. It is more tactical, more aggressive, less random, and more streamlined. For some people, these are all advantages, while others prefer the slower paced, more random, more quirky Zarcana.
Gnostica was published in Hypothermia #14.
