How TOTUS Works

A Game of Infinite Possibilities

TOTUS is easy to learn and endlessly flexible.
Players build strategies by combining people, ideas, tools, and special cards from across time, disciplines, and imagination. Each deck explores a different realm of knowledge, history, or creativity. Every deck is designed to stand on its own — yet all decks can be combined, creating endless ways to play.

The Core Building Blocks

Each TOTUS deck follows the same universal structure, making the game intuitive to learn

and easy to expand:

• People / Creatures — The characters, beings, and forces that drive the game

• Ideas — Concepts, discoveries, and philosophies that shape strategy

• Tools — Objects and resources that empower your play

• Special Cards — Rare moments, twists, and powerful effects that can change the flow of the game

  Because this structure is consistent across all decks, players can mix themes freely without needing to learn new rules each time.

Play One Deck — or Combine Many

You can play TOTUS using a single deck or combine multiple decks to create entirely new experiences. A scientist can face a mythical creature. A sailing ship can cross paths with a gangster’s scheme. In TOTUS, Einstein might meet Cleopatra - and that could win you the game. The combinations are limitless.

The more decks you add, the richer and more unpredictable the game becomes.

Learn as You Play

TOTUS is designed to be accessible to new players while offering depth for experienced ones. The game encourages curiosity, creativity, and strategic thinking — whether you’re playing casually, competitively, or exploring the knowledge behind each card.

One Universe. Endless Games.

TOTUS grows with you. Start with one deck, explore new themes, and build your own way to play — one card at a time.
