DECKO
Poker rounds where the losers get to buy stranger cards into their deck.

A surreal deck-builder wearing the structure of a poker night, where you bet chips on your hand, burn a card every round to sharpen your deck, and bend the rules with jokers.
Who it's for
Card players who know poker and want its bluffing rhythm layered onto a deck that grows more absurd every round.
Not for you if…
You dislike betting and bluffing, or you want a strictly balanced contest without escalating personal powers.
Vibe's take
Cheeky and escalating – it starts as recognisable poker and ends with everyone holding a deck that breaks the rules in a personal way.
