This is our first Playdate game! We designed it for Playjam 6 with the theme trick-or-treat in mind.

Contains depictions of snakes on a couple of the cards, in case that's not your thing!

Controls:

• Your hand is on the right, the trick being played is on the left.
• Use left/right to move between your hand and the current trick pile.
• Use the crank to cycle through cards in the currently selected pile.
• Press B to play the visible card from your hand into the trick.

Defeat your demons by playing winning tricks. You play 1 card per trick, and win tricks by playing a card of a higher rank than all other cards in play.  However, the rules require that:

• You must follow suit if you can.
• You must play a higher ranked major arcana than what is in the trick pile if you can.

When you win a trick, you will play first on the subsequent trick.

The full rules, not all of which are fully implemented in this game, are available at: https://www.pagat.com/tarot/frtarot.html which we recommend if you're looking for a card game you can play with friends (or demons!) and a tarot deck.

This is a trick taking card game based off of the game played with The Player's Tarot by Jasmine Rae Friedrich. We've enjoyed playing the game a bunch with out friends and family, and also enjoyed bringing an interpretation of the French Tarot rules onto the Playdate.
