Story
Card Slay is a poker roguelike deckbuilder where the House fights back. Fight through a cursed House with poker hands as your weapons. Red suits deal damage. Black suits build Block. Shape your deck around powerful combos, then choose the hand that keeps you alive. Draw eight cards and build a poker hand using one to five cards.

Preview your hand’s Attack and Block before you play. An in-game hand guide helps you learn the poker patterns as you play. The monsters attack your deck as well as your health.

Elites and bosses impose rules that can punish repeated hands or limit your discards. Read their intentions, find the opening, and make your next hand count. Draft new cards, forge upgrades, and remove cards that get in your way. Collect Runes whose passive effects combine throughout the run, and save single-use Phials to turn a...
