Five Card Knight is a game about an apprentice poker knight with a gambling addiction. It features an original (albeit short) soundtrack, a unique poker-based combat system, and rpg elements.

The project was heavily inspired by Helltaker, Undertale, and Sword & Poker.
Five Card Knight was created for Miz Jam 1.
All assets were created by Kenney and modified by our team.
Meant to be played as a downloadable exe; if played in WebGL, certain things may not work properly.


Notes:

Do not click the in-game feedback option if you are using WebGL. It will open in the current tab and close the game. Follow the link above instead.


FAQ:

Q: How do I beat the dragon?
A: If you want some help, try looking around the room for a treasure chest.

Q: What programs did you use?
A: The game was made in Unity. I also used Photoshop to edit sprites and Bosca Ceoil to make the OST.

The mechanic is pretty cool!

Nice idea, it sorta reminds me of Puzzle Quest, but with poker. I'm not doing your game any justice though because I'm not in the right mindset to properly tackle the rules right now. Lovely stuff though. Really good

I played for about 15 minutes (spent most of my time on the training dummy) and I have to say, hats off to you. The game design is so smart, I'm really impressed. Looking forward to playing more later!
