About the Game

Sorte is a poker roguelike built around one question: How big can you break it?

Each level gives you a target score and three hands to reach it. Beat the target on your first hand and pocket the biggest bonus. Wait until the third and you barely scrape by. Every reshuffle, every card you hold — it all matters.

Between levels, spend your coins on Tokens. These aren't just stat boosts — they're characters with their own rules. One rewards you for hoarding pairs. Another stamps your cards with effects that stick for the rest of the run. A third swaps faces on your court cards when you least expect it. Mix and match. Some combinations click. Some explode spectacularly.

Push through 50 levels — then keep going. New Game Plus carries your upgraded deck into tougher cycles that never stop scaling.

Features:

  • Early-clear bonus — beat each level early for extra coins

  • Scoring Tokens that work passively every hand

  • Card-Tool Tokens you apply directly onto cards to change them

  • Cards that level up — upgrade your deck across the run

  • Pocket cards — swap a dealt card for a spare, fresh every level

  • New Game Plus — clear all 50 levels, then carry your build into endless cycles

  • Hundreds of Token combinations to discover
