Who it's for

Two-player card game fans who like direct confrontation with a clean layering mechanic and built-in comeback potential.

Vibe's take

Sharp and swingy β€” covering an opponent's card feels satisfying, and the winner/loser catch-up mechanic keeps every round contestable even after a rough start.
