Mipumi Games, in partnership with Skystone Games, today announced Black Jacket, a bold new take on deckbuilding roguelites. Blending the timeless thrill of Blackjack with inventive card mechanics, Black Jacket challenges players to gamble their way out of the afterlife by bending the rules of the table and playing impossible combos.
In Black Jacket, you’re trapped in the hellish afterlife, surrounded by restless souls desperate for release. To escape, you’ll need to outwit them at the tables, win their coin, and bribe the ferryman. Every hand is high-stakes, because this isn’t your ordinary game of Blackjack.
