How it feels

A tense turn-based card game where you bluff and cheat to survive a deadly cruise, with a darkly comic and story-rich atmosphere.

What players say

Players praise the passion and creativity but are deeply split on the poker design. Some say the rules are broken by an enemy with infinite power or by exploit-friendly team play, while others find the poker mechanics fun and fresh with RPG skills. A controversial feature deletes your save before the final boss, forcing a full restart if you lose.
