Based on the Showtime TV Series, Penny Dreadful: Demimonde is a cross between CCG and Puzzle-RPG that is set to arrive this Fall.

The puzzles are to be mini-games for the fans of the show, while allowing players to build their own teams by collecting their favorite creatures and characters from the show, and battle them against other players in tournaments.
