How to play Classic mode

  • Goal: To win, play a 1 onto either Countdown pile by counting down from 13.
  • Hand: You always have 5 cards in hand. You automatically draw after each play. Or use a redraw (can't redraw twice in a row).
  • Losing: You lose if you run out of valid moves or put a 13 on the count-up pile.

Countdown Piles (2 Piles)

  • Descending Order: Piles accept cards in descending order (each card played must be exactly 1 value lower than the current top card).
  • Starting Piles: Empty countdown piles must start with a 13.
  • Sequence: Play sequentially down from 13 to 1.
  • Locked: Once you play a card on a countdown pile, you cannot remove it.

Count-Up Pile (1 Pile)

  • Ascending Order: Accepts cards of equal or any higher value than the current top card.
  • Instant Loss Hazard: Playing a 13 on this pile results in an immediate loss.
  • Reset Mechanic: Playing a card that matches the value of the current top card clears all buried cards in the count-up pile back into the deck. The matching card remains as the new top card.
  • You can move the top card to any countdown pile if possible

Special Actions

  • Redraw Action: Shuffle your hand back into the deck and draw 5 new cards. This action has a 1-turn cooldown.

I think I made it too easy. Game jam version was a lot harder where it shuffled the deck each time a card was returned.

Super lucky game. Sorry Mr Froggito 🍕⌛

Fun
