About the Game

COUNTERintuitive - The Roguelite Gambler

The objective in COUNTERintuitive is to reach an ever-growing target score. Grow your pool and cash out until your bank reaches the target. Spend what's in your bank to purchase upgrades that will assist you in getting farther on future runs. Beat a target of one billion to win the game!

Grow Stronger with Every Attempt
Earn permanent upgrades to increase your lives, cashouts, and bust limits, making each new run more forgiving than the last. Manage your pool, dodge busts, and outsmart the ever-climbing odds to hit your target and clear the round.

High Stakes, Simple Rules
Add to your pool one step at a time—or double it instantly at the risk of losing everything. Upgrade your stats, lower your bust chance, and push for bigger wins as the difficulty ramps up.

Build Your Edge with Mods
Acquire unique mods that change the rules in your favor—stack passive gains, cut upgrade costs, boost sell values, and more. Choose wisely, because every mod slot counts.
