About this game

Jump into a classic Rogue and Blackjack mash-up for the masses. All the trappings of an old school RPG game with rogue-like mechanics plus Blackjack based fighting that keeps every attack fresh.

Brought to you by Ponywolf, the studio behind the "Knights of the Card Table." RogueJack is a blend of old school dungeoning that utilizes Blackjack (a.k.a. 21) as its battle system. This game is easy to learn, hard to master and provides countless hours of old school dungeoning in your pocket.

Explore endless dungeons, discover monsters and beat them all in a game of 21. Collect weapons, defenses and the carcasses of your enemies while playing a fresh and interesting take on BlackJack. As you level up, players can choose from multiple cards that can be delivered face up or down. Each monster in the dungeon has its own play style, when they hit, when they stop and if they keep their hole card hidden. Also, gamers will discover endless combinations of items, buffs, skills and attributes that will play out in unique and interesting ways.

Ratings and reviews

it was freezing every time I tried to click buy the ad free version, which was annoying when I was trying to give money away. I do wish there was more, idk. depth. maybe that's not the point. that I would understand. I'm on floor 19, and I'm just not sure what's gonna happen. Is it just gonna go on forever? Am I going to do another "run"? If so, is there a difficulty level? Which can't be because it's just rng over and over. Which is fine. Im just trying to figure out what this game is all about

This is a fun take on a roguelike dungeon crawler. You're going to have good runs, you're going to have bad runs. It all depends. The more you level, the better chances you have at avoiding a bust. The only problem I have is weapon scaling. Specifically with the class dependant weapons. You never change classes, so theres no point in getting the guns and such over other things. The effects for most weapons are relatively worthless unless you're actively running from enemies.

It's a really cool concept, and not a bad game, by any means. However, as I have seen with multiple comments, I question how often the enemies hit 19-21 compared to myself. I have no idea where the global statistics are that the responses talk about to check. I understand Blackjack supposed to have a bit of randomness to it, but these enemies hit 19-21 way too often. Still, good game! I like it!
