In "De'Vine World of Shadows," players enter a world of JRPG card and farming systems, where the Ancients, beings of immense power, threaten Heaven and Hell. Angels and Demons create a trinket allowing only human blood to wield it, and Amos, obsessed with the Ancients, uses a blood ritual to create half-demon, half-human sons to seal them away. When Amos' plot to sacrifice one son is revealed, the other son sacrifices himself to save his brother, allowing demons to invade the mortal realm.
