It's a Grim Solitaire
It's a grim solitaire. One deck, 44 cards, 20 life.
Clubs and spades are monsters. They hit for their rank: J 11, Q 12, K 13, A 14.
Diamonds are weapons. A weapon takes its rank off every hit, but only fights monsters weaker than its last kill.
Hearts are potions. They heal their rank, up to 20. Only the first one each round heals.
Each round deals 4 cards. Play 3. The 4th stays for the next round.
Flee a round to send all 4 under the deck. Not twice in a row, and not once you've played a card.
Clear the deck to win. Hit 0 and you lose.
Every deck is dealt to be winnable.
Couch and Online Co-op
Two players, two decks, two crosses of 4 cards. The crosses share 2 cards.
A shared card goes to whoever plays it first. What you leave there, your partner can reach.
Leave them the potion. Take the monster their weapon can't. Flee your cross and the shared cards go with it.
Each player has their own life, weapon and potion. If one falls, you both lose.
Clear both decks to win.
Play local, or online with a Steam friend.
