Pretty cool, nice rat art. This is the only game where the AI does not cheat at blackjack, lul. Always did all in. The is not that hard, as the AI does not cheat, like other blackjack ai's in other games. it is pretty fun, and the new cards that have effect really make it feel more fun and fair. The battle UI could use some more polishing.

What could've done better is the outside, like some sort of indication what each building was, except for the shop, I was going to explore each new building, as I thought it was going to have an little story, but nope, still fun though.

Overall pretty cool and fun game.

A really cool game inspired by BlackJack if I'm not wrong.

It was fun to try to play, and chose the best course of action. However, I think the fact that you cannot choose to "stand", when you know you cannot go higher was the things that I enjoyed  the least. I understand that, as we see the card this will give us an unfair advantage, but there was numerous times where just after drawing, I knew I was going to lose,just waiting for the round to end.

Furthermore, there was some problem (Maybe it's the order I click, or the fact I try to wager all of my cookie), but the games decided to GameOver me, and not allow me to retry the game. (Debug Consol showed up)

Nonetheless, the game was fun, good work ! Keep it up !

Cool gamble, wish I didn't have to play all of the cards in my hand since it didn't really seem intuitive? At the very least it didn't make much sense to get to 21 and have to play another card since 21 is the goal. I like the visuals, the rats remind me of the movie flushed away for some reason.

Neat game but I think I bugged it out a little, won the first match, got into the second and suddenly won without even playing a card, then I got a game over.

Oof, yea the game is not completely bug free yet, I'll make sure to fix it once i have time on it! Thanks for playing!!

1. It's a little annoying that you can't skip tutorial after losing.

2. the signs in the tutorial are shown too fast, as a non-native English speaker, I just don't have time to read them!!

I'll take note on that the next time I make a patch, thanks for playing <3
