Description
About This Game
Royal’s Gambit is a retro-inspired, turn-based card strategy game where every decision counts. Face off against intricate 16-card stage patterns made of powerful royal face cards standing in your way. To clear a path to the exit, you'll need to match card values to their health—planning carefully with every move.
Build and refine your deck as you advance, unlocking new tools and strategies to overcome tougher stages. Each choice impacts your score, which rises with smart plays, combos, and risk-reward multipliers. But beware—failure means starting over, making every run a high-stakes gamble.
With multiple game modes and over 80 unique stages, Royal’s Gambit challenges you to think ahead, adapt on the fly, and master the board in pursuit of the perfect run—all presented with nostalgic pixel visuals and stylized retro effects.
