Summary

Only one person can use it at a time but the computer-controlled tarot reader (appearing as a fortune teller) can provide unlimited readings for the player and his friends. Players can choose between two female and one male character provide the fortune telling.

A combination of hiragana and katakana for the Japanese characters helps provide a feeling to the tarot reading that is both mysterious and familiar at the same time. Unlike most Japanese tarot reading simulations that use the Celtic cross, House of Tarot uses the pentagram method of reading tarot cards.
