RogueJack: Roguelike Blackjack

Fun game. A cool way to vary from normal black jack. Their is no Split or Double Down sadly but will recommend. Wish this game get updated with new content.

While blackjack remains a cruel game at times, I feel like RogueJack has a lot of fun mechanics to make it more player friendly. I mean, you'll still get occasionally owned by RNG, but there are a number of things you can to do to increase your odds. Personally, I need to get better at remembering how the different monsters play... or just bother to reference it while I'm playing them :D In any case, RogueJack is a smart mash-up of rogue-like and blackjack mechanics. I've had a lot of fun with it so far and I think you will too.

A nice idea badly executed. Pros: +Lots of hands to play if you like it +Challenging foes +Support indie dev Cons: -Too repetetive -No actual final boss(i've reached a fairly deep floor and also it seems like this from the achievments -Many mobs, if you don't have near 100% seeing rate of cards, are almost impossible to beat. -MUST grind levels and it gets boring

I really thought I'd found something special. It looks interesting but suffers from spelling mistakes, daft design choices and a d-pad that you can't hold a direction to move. Thanks but no thanks.

Fun and interesting game. Pretty much what you'd expect, combat is determined by hands of blackjack, with roguelite elements. Not a crazy amount of content. I have no regrets picking this one up, it was definitely worth a few good play sessions to 100%.

Actually a really fun way to spend the time, it's like Rogue but with a level system that carries across runs. Lots of fun, kinda BS because it's based on luck and the house always wins.

A fun little dungeon crawler where the main mechanic of combat is playing rounds of blackjack with the monsters you fight. This is super cool, a lot of interesting ideas and mods on how to make blackjack interesting. Needs more content! Make a sequel or DLC!

Great game. I enjoy the mechanics, a roguelike with blackjack is a good fit for the genre.

A lot of reviewers say this game is a bit simple, and while they aren't wrong, that's part of the charm for me. It's a good time waster for when I want to play something that is low stakes and not too mentally taxing, but scratches my dungeon crawling itch. This fills that niche perfectly for me. My biggest gripe is that you can lose to an enemy that wins on a tie when you get a 21, this 'feels' a bit bad to me. Other than that my biggest wish is that it had some kind of prestige system, IE each time you max Librarian EXP you have the option to 'ascend' and all enemies get +1 health and you go back to the first hero, ad infinitum. I've bought this on Android and PC now, and the dev mentioned the possibility of RJ2, which definitely sounds good to me. Look forward to what comes next. -Tyler

An excellent, quick little game. Not a ton of depth, but, for a degenerate gambler like me, this is addictive. Fun for at least a couple of hours and it's quite cheap. I've definitely paid more and gotten less. So give this one a go.
