About This Demo

Combine winning blackjack hands with unique drink cards to create wild synergies and game-breaking builds. Score big enough to beat devious encounters, all while discovering runes, gems, and editions as you progress. You'll need every edge you can find to reach the boss, outscore the final stage, and secure victory.

Buy drinks, carve runes, socket gems. Every tool rewrites the table, stack enough of them and a single hand can shatter the score target.

  • 60 drink cards (full game ships with 156), each with their own unique abilities.

  • 22 bosses with rule-breaking modifiers to overcome each run.

  • 4 editions for every drink card (Spirit, Wood, Bone, Ritual) that layer further effects on top.

  • 22 rune variants that bend the core rules of blackjack from Ace values to bust limits to face card worth.

  • 4 card editions (Blessed, Lucky, Druidic, Tabula Rasa) that enhance individual playing cards in your deck. 

  • 4 gem types (Citrine, Emerald, Amethyst, Ruby) to socket into cards for permanent per-card buffs.

  • Shop services to create, destroy, socket, and transform cards to enhance your deckbuilding tools.
