❤ Crafting Powerful Poker Hands

You take on the role of a poker player progressing through increasingly difficult "blinds" - rounds where you must earn a target score by playing valid poker hands. Each blind starts by dealing you 8 cards, which you can discard and redraw in an attempt to form hands like pairs, three of a kind, flushes, and straights. The core loop of building your hand, optimizing your play, and strategically progressing through these blinds is highly engaging. You'll need to balance playing it safe to secure a minimum score versus going for high-risk, high-reward hands that could lead to victory or devastating loss.

❤ Unlocking Gamechanging Synergies

As you earn chips for completed blinds, you can visit a shop between rounds to purchase powerful upgrades. This includes "Joker" cards - 150 unique effects that dramatically alter how poker hands are scored and played. Discovering clever synergies between Jokers, card upgrades, and your starting deck is key to achieving high scores. For example, you might unlock a Joker that doubles the value of all flush hands, incentivizing you to skew your deck towards that hand type. Or a Joker that makes low-value number cards more lucrative, allowing you to build an efficient "high card" strategy. Constantly adapting your approach to overcome each new challenge is both satisfying and addictive.

❤ Progressing to New Heights

Completing a run unlocks higher difficulty challenges, new gameplay modes, and additional deckbuilding options. The inherent randomness of card deals and available Jokers ensures no two runs play out exactly the same, driving you to tackle "one more" game in pursuit of perfecting your strategy. With 15 starting decks, an abundance of customization options, and the thrill of risk-reward decision-making, this poker-inspired roguelike delivers a highly compelling and replayable experience. Mastering its depths becomes an engrossing, dopamine-fueled challenge that's hard to put down.
