Fool's Gambit is a rogue-like turn-based card strategy game where you have to play and beat opponents in games of Blackjack with tarot cards.

You are a nobody. You have no special talents, your ability is average. You need money to survive. The job market is closed. No one wants you. Your only chance at life is joining the Tournament. Losing carries high consequences. Survive it and the prize it yours.

Fight your opponent in multiple games of Blackjack played with only tarot cards. Each card has a distinct value and effect when played. Use it to your advantage.

The Tournament doesn't follow any standard rules. Navigate a randomly-generated map filled with branching paths, each leading to a different event, helpful or not. Find your way out of the map and you get to leave.

Will you choose the path of cunning strategy against random odds, or will you depend on your sheer (and diminishing) luck.

Randomly generated - each run provides different paths, choices and battles.
Strategic gameplay - use your cards and items to gain an upper hand against your opponent.
Equal playing field - your opponent obeys the same rules as you do. you both share the deck.
