How it feels
A poker roguelike that feels like a strategic puzzle of building joker synergies to outscore increasingly tough blinds.

What players say
Players call this a brilliantly addictive poker-like roguelike where you build a scoring engine with jokers and deck manipulation. It is accessible even to those who do not know poker, though some reviews note that the highest difficulty feels too reliant on restarting for good luck.
