Hi everyone, I just put out a free demo of my game Grim Odds.

It's a scratch card roguelite set in a haunted 1946 New York. You owe the Policy King and tonight he's collecting. You scratch cursed tickets, read the clues on them and try to hit big combos to pay off each Marker before you run out of tickets.

Between rounds you go to The Familiar, a speakeasy run by something that isn't quite a man. You can buy new packs there, swap the coin you scratch with and get it engraved. Every Stop ends with a Kingpin who changes the rules on you.

The demo has the first 3 Stops, the Speakeasy, the Subway and the Docks. You can play it in your browser or download it for Windows and Mac.

I'm making this on my own so any feedback helps a lot. Tell me what felt good, what didn't and where you got stuck.

Grim Odds is a scratch-card roguelite set in a haunted 1946 New York. The demo is free and plays in your browser.

You owe the Policy King, and tonight he's collecting. You scratch cursed tickets, read their clues and chase big combos to pay off each Marker before you run out of tickets. Every Stop ends with a Kingpin who bends the rules their own way.

Between rounds you drop into The Familiar, a speakeasy run by something that isn't quite a man, to buy new packs, swap the coin you scratch with and get it engraved.

The demo has the first 3 Stops: the Speakeasy, the Subway and the Docks. Play it in the browser or download it for Windows and Mac.

I'm making this on my own and I'd really like to know what you think: what felt good, what didn't, where you got stuck.

The first public build is up! Scratch cursed tickets, build a run out of packs, coins and engravings, and get through the Speakeasy, the Subway and the Docks before the Policy King collects.

It's the first time anyone other than me has played it, so any feedback helps: what you liked, what you didn't, where you got stuck. Comments on the page are perfect.

Windows and Mac. Thanks for playing!
