About the Game

Jack Pottwin: House of Odds - A Cursed Casino Roguelike Deckbuilder

You will need to learn the rules and modify the odds of this rigged house as you progress through a 10-story tower fever dream, challenging a grotesque cast of bosses that are human addicts fused directly into the casino hardware.

  • Fusions & Poker Combos: Fusing cards adds their values to create higher valued cards like Jack, Queen and King, while fusing Poker Hands adds traits like Lifesteal and Stun to the resulting card.

  • Forge Reel: Spin the reels before every encounter to choose and lock in your three starting cards.

  • Lucky Coins: Equip coins that rewrite the rules of your run, granting passive benefits like shield carryover, bonus tickets or altering other game systems.

  • Contracts: Choose your next contract after defeating a boss to shape your progression and control the Odds.

  • Death Legacy: Carry over 3 cards, get a random lucky coin or keep the Tickets from a failed run to jumpstart your next attempt.

Three Card Actions:

  • Left: Store a card in your Vault to set up future fusions.

  • Right: Fuse your hand card with your Vaulted cards. Fusing merges their values to create Jack, Queen, and King cards, and fusing Poker Hands adds powerful combat traits.

  • Up: Attack enemies, letting overkill damage carry over to the next target and trigger accumulated card traits.
