Rogue like poker game.
This game is incredible.
I can’t really explain why it’s so good, you just have to play it.
Anyone have it?

Friend told me it was great. It looks dumb to me

I thought it looked boring but when I tried it I understood why it's so popular. It resembles poker but is really more of a puzzle game. Pretty addictive.

Yep, I heard about it a few weeks ago and I've been playing it since. Lots of fun.

I've been playing it for months. Great game.

Highly suggest this game. Just started playing it yesterday. If you like poker, or deck/draft building games, or strategy games, you'll love it.
It's highly addictive and has extreme depth and creativity in terms of how you can successfully build your deck.

I keep threatening to buy it on Switch.
The last game that made no sense that I tried blindly was Yoku's Island Express, and I played nothing but that for 2 weeks until I beat it.
Metroidvania pinball game. Who knew?

I've been playing for months. I need to play it more, but you're right. It's amazing.
EDIT: Just saw my initial response in January. Glad I'm consistent. :-)

It's on Game Pass currently. Really addictive game though.
I wish it was mobile-friendly like Slay the Spire because I would play this on my phone constantly.

Addictive as hell. I'm still unlocking some of the decks.

Guess I should have been more clear. It is playable on mobile through Game Pass, just not with touch screen. I'm not a fan of using a controller with my phone.

That is very frustrating because the game is great on a touch screen

Glad to hear that. I honestly didnt know there was an app store version.
Definitely seems like one that should have touch screen capability. Hoping Microsoft can get that worked out with the developer.

I'd love to see a deck that can actually make it to an extremely deep ante. The chart shows to ante 16 but apparently it goes to 39.
You officially win the match after ante 8 and it gets exponentially harder after that. I have managed to get to ante 11, but I mean, I played 5 straight hands of extremely juiced (level 14) straight flushes and it wasn't even close. The goal score at that ante was 14.4 million. My hands were putting up like 400k-500k each and it obviously didn't even scratch the amount necessary.

I purchased the game about 48 hours ago and I have 24 hours played, so, yeah.
Posted on 4/28/25 at 2:22 pm to CBandits82
I bought this on Android and I'm not sure I have any idea what I'm doing.

You just try to progress as far as possible. Going 8 ante levels is considered a win. In order to progress you must improve your deck. You build synergies to make your decks scoring potential higher. There are like 6 or 7 mechanics to do so and they overlap. I would concentrate on the joker cards initially as they are typically the most powerful and straightforward.
The celestial planet cards are also straightforward, they update the hand types so you upgrade the types you are gunning to play.
The other mechanics are a little more complex but they all become second nature as you understand the synergies and scoring.
