Description
About This Game
Time is the only thing you have.
As a prisoner awaiting execution, you are allowed to play blackjack against the prison director. But there is no money on the table.
What you wager is your remaining life — your time.
With every hand, decide how much time you are willing to risk. Win, and you gain that much time. Lose, and the clock moves a little closer to zero. Play it safe, take bigger risks, or put everything on a single hand.
But the blackjack table and the cards are not the only things you can interact with inside the prison. Explore your surroundings, discover hidden interactions, and look for small opportunities that may help you survive. As prison life continues around you, guards patrol the halls, announcements echo through the building, and news from the outside world keeps coming in.
TIME IS YOUR CURRENCY
Every decision directly affects how much time you have left. Protect your remaining life with small bets, or risk your minutes for the chance of a much bigger reward.
MORE THAN BLACKJACK
Explore interactions throughout the prison, take part in different minigames, and make use of opportunities that can give you an advantage. Knowing when to step away from the table can be just as important as knowing when to draw the right card.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR TABLE
Survive longer to unlock new card-back designs and change the appearance of your blackjack deck.
THE PRISON KEEPS MOVING
Guards, prison announcements, random environmental events, and news from the outside world continue in the background during every run. As the clock keeps ticking, the world does not stop for you.
HOW LONG CAN YOU SURVIVE?
The goal is not simply to win the hand.
The goal is to beat the clock.
