About the Game

Draw a pair of aces, use them as poker hands or to eliminate your opponents? A poker roguelike battle card game. Build a deck of jokers, defeat bosses, modify cards, and conquer challenges across the ever-changing islands. At the table of four, win by chips or remaining health, your call...

Fortunato is a symbol of peace. It was originally created to put an end to the endless wars between the Fortunians, the inhabitants of the continent. Today, most conflicts must be settled through the game of Fortunato. No more violence, only cards.

There are two ways to win in Fortunato: either by having the most chips or by being the last player with health remaining. Choose how you want to win.

A 4-players poker experience blended with deckbuilding and battle card gameplay. Use your poker hand not only to win chips from the pot, as in classic poker, but also to attack or defend against opponents. The game features familiar poker phases: betting, drawing cards, revealing the Flop, and the final showdown, with a twist of battle card assignment and match-up phase in-between the classic poker phases.

The deckbuilding comes from Joker cards with various abilities that each player, including your opponents, can use. From a Joker that can reveal an opponent’s current poker hand, to one that forces all players’ poker hands to be redrawn, to another that adds additional shields in the match-up phase, and so on. Find the best combination of Jokers in your deck to beat your opponents.

  • 2 to 4-players match.

  • Constantly changing island layouts each run, with up to 4 islands, each featuring different levels and unique gimmicks.

  • A variety of room types in every island: regular matches, character challenges, bosses, special rooms, rest room, and shop.

  • Various obtainable Jokers that can change the tide of the match: battle, poker, buff, and debuff cards.

  • The Joker cards can also be enhanced: upgrade the effect/ability to a better version, lessen the cost to activate, and duplicate the same Joker card. 

  • Entertaining bosses at the end of each island, and you can even obtain their signature Joker.

  • Furry characters to defeat, each with their own personalized Joker deck, betting style, and battle tendencies.

  • Passive-effect equipment in the form of Charms.

  • Variety cosmetics for the table, card backs, bet napkins, and character portraits, featuring different animals or races, facial features, and clothing.

  • And… funny stickers.
