About the Game

LANDLORD is a creative casual board and card game. When playing the conventional Landlord card game, players often face bottlenecks due to the difficulty of memorizing and calculating cards. Landlord itself is an incomplete-information game, but LANDLORD cleverly transforms the ever-changing strategies during gameplay into a visual scenario. It reshapes the traditional card gameplay into a reasoning experience more akin to chess or Sudoku. We believe LANDLORD can offer you new strategic perspectives and gameplay experiences, further enhancing your Landlord skills.

Each card is an independent slot machine. The content on the slot displays the card's status, including [Identity], [Whether It Is a Base Card], [Card Type], and more. As the game progresses, you'll find all revealed information clear at a glance. You'll no longer overlook decision-making foundations due to misremembering cards as you might have before. As the match moves into the endgame, it increasingly resembles a game of chess. At the same time, the visual interface makes it easier to train your card memorization skills.

The game includes Single Player and Multiplayer modes. In Single Player mode, you can compete against high-difficulty AI to train your decision-making and card memorization skills, while unlocking over 80 achievements and experiencing various edge-case scenarios in Landlord matches.

In Single Player mode, we track players' win counts against high-difficulty AI across different roles and compile leaderboards based on this data. Join the intense training now—climb this mountain, and they will hear your story.

In Multiplayer mode, you can invite two friends to participate in a 16-round LANDLORD match. Multiplayer mode includes phases not available in Single Player, such as the bidding phase, doubling phase, bombs, "Spring," "Anti-Spring" doubling, and score tracking. From this new perspective, the game reveals itself in a whole new light. Gather your friends and challenge your teammates!

All features in LANDLORD are now fully available, including the complete [Single Player Mode], [Multiplayer Mode], [Achievements], and [Leaderboards]. [Add to Wishlist] to ensure you don’t miss updates about the official release and any discounts!

We welcome suggestions for improvements or collaboration and encourage everyone to share their gameplay experiences.
