DECKO 2026

To win in this surreal deckbuilding game players buy supernatural poker cards, burn cards to thin their decks and bend the rules using a plethora of jokers.

The game is structured like a traditional poker game, players bet chips on their poker hands by raising or calling the bet, or fold to get a free new card. Players also get to permanently remove one card from their deck per hand by doing the burn action. After each hand is played all players that didn't win or fold get to buy new special playing cards and jokers, increasing their chances of winning in later rounds.

As the game progresses players will become increasingly powerful and asymmetric in their abilities. The player who has the most poker chips after twelve rounds wins the game.
