Who it's for

Poker fans who want a thematic, narrative-driven solo or co-op game built around hand-evaluation combat.

Not for you if…

You want a bluffing-style card duel against another player; this uses poker hands as a solo/co-op combat mechanism, not head-to-head poker.

🦊

Vibe's take

Tense and hand-focused: every duel comes down to the poker hand you can build, with escalating stakes as you push closer to the final confrontation.

About this game

Ace of Spades is a poker-powered dueling game about hunting down the necromancer who ruined your life, cemetery by cemetery, in the town of Sweet Haven, Arizona. You channel magic through poker hands to take out Lord Overkill's minions one by one before descending into Hell itself for the final showdown, playable solo or as a two-player co-op.
