(Based on a game my dad made up for me and my sister to play when we were kids)

It’s a game of chicken, but played with cards

Your goal is to have more cards than the House at the end of 9 rounds: each turn of the crank draws one card for you and one for the House, adding to both totals and putting more cards at stake. Keep turning for as long as you dare, or press A to end the turn. Whoever has the higher total buy the end of the round claims every card played that turn.

When you are feeling lucky, between rounds you can activate the Gambit Mode: flip one card each, and the gap between them decides how many cards change hands. 

(Seriously though, it's easier if you try for yourself. The rules are actually simple!)

How to Play

  • Crank: draw a card
  • A: End the round
  • B: Gambit Mode(between rounds only)

To install: download the zip and upload it at play.date/account/sideload. Also runs in the free Playdate Simulator.
