About the Game

GROW YOUR HAND

Buy new cards to increase your odds of hitting good hands. If you're rich enough, you can even break the rules and get over 5 cards.

GO ON EXPEDITIONS

Once unlocked, you can send your minions on expeditions to discover new otherworldy cards with powerful benefits. Upgrade these missions to provide even more powerful benefits as you progress. You can even unlock missions to destroy cards from your deck that you don't want, to ensure every hand is exactly how you want it.

GET UPGRADED

Buy powerful upgrades using your hard earned coins, enabling you to progress quicker, open up new avenues, and take on the evil Jester!

ESTABLISH DOMINANCE

Even though the Jester doesn't like it, you can buy new decks of cards in order to play more hands at once. Use this to your advantage to grow those numbers even faster!

ASCEND TO GREATNESS

Make a deal with Mary the Fairy to start over in exchange for Poker Chips (poker chips? ...but this ain't even poker...?), use those chips to buy even more powerful upgrades.

ESCAPE THE HOUSE OF CARDS

You're trapped in the Jester's domain, can you manage to defeat him and escape? Or will he keep you there, trapped forever in an endless cycle?
