Description
Manipulate a blackjack game from the inside as a dealer subroutine in this minimalist roguelike deckbuilder. Read the visible card's queue, execute illegal code exploits to alter the upcoming cards, and fleece high-rolling patrons before the system anti-cheat detects your anomaly.
About
YOU ARE THE HOUSE. CHEAT THE ARRAY.
You are DEALER.exe, a rogue subroutine inside SYSTEM 21, the casino's proprietary operating system. Your job is to engineer every outcome on the floor: read the upcoming cards in the visible draw queue, deal them in order, and when the math favors the patrons, rewrite reality before anyone notices.
- The shoe is an open buffer. Upcoming cards sit in a sequential queue, newest on top. Read ahead and plan accordingly.
- Illegal exploits. During the dealer draw, DELETE burns the next card or INVERT swaps the top two. Every intervention raises global suspicion.
- Six patron archetypes. Tourists, Regulars, Drunks, By-the-Book, Card Counters, and Whales, each with a wallet, a hype meter, and different betting behavior. Fleece them too fast and they disconnect. Let them win just enough, then extract when wallets are full.
- Audit evasion. Exploits, hole-card peeks, and reshuffles feed the detection meter. Suspicion climbs in escalating bands. At 100%, SYS_ADMIN traces the signal and your run terminates.
- Seven campaign cycles. Quotas climb, seats fill, spawn tables tighten. One persistent shoe grows from 4 decks to 8. Hit each cycle's extract target before drawdown maxes or the floor empties.
- The Compiler shop. Between cycles, spend a slice of winning profit on twelve different plugins that elevate the gameplay to a new level.
- Eleven Anomaly Challenge protocols. Unlocked after campaign victory. Single-deck sprints, whale-only floors, DELETE disabled, heat ladders, and others. From Easy to Insane difficulty.
