Imagine the rush of winning at a high-stakes poker table. Now imagine you’re winning because you’re cheating so blatantly that you might as well be drawing your own numbers on the cards. You put down a 2, then another 2, then three more 2s, to make everyone’s favourite poker, a roguelike deckbuilder that successfully scratches an itch to cheat in a casino that I never even knew I had.
