Tower's Gambit is a card-based roguelike inspired by the tension of Fortune's Tower and the chaotic joy of Balatro. Flip cards from a pyramid — row by row, top to bottom. Every card you reveal shifts the odds. Match two of the same number and your run ends. Cash out early and keep your score, or push deeper into the tower for massive payouts. But score isn't just a number. It's your currency, your lifeline, your bargaining chip between stages. Spend it wisely — or lose it all. FACE THE ROYAL COURT • Kings multiply your score — but only when the pyramid is in your favor • Queens reshape the board, bending the rules of the tower • Jacks save you from disaster — if you play them at the right moment • Every face card has a timing window. Knowing when to use them is the whole game. CLIMB THE TOWER • 10+ boss towers, each with unique modifiers that change how you play • Every run reshuffles the threat roster — no climb is the same • Stage gates that test your nerve and your deck knowledge • Spend your score between stages to prepare for what's next BUILT FOR "ONE MORE RUN" • Runs are fast — a full climb takes minutes, not hours • The pyramid mechanic is simple to learn, impossible to master • Every decision matters: flip or cash out, spend or save, play the face card now or hold it
