Blackjack But Anime
A pen-and-paper card game of tropes and teamwork!

Team up with up to four other Players as you all band together to defeat the greatest evil that ever lived: the House!

The Overview:
In this game you will not be playing ordinary Blackjack, no sir! You and your friends will choose Character Archetypes to bring to life, roleplaying flashbacks of different derivative narrative moments you had together as you activate your special abilities.

But you're more than just a Character, you're a Gamer too and that comes with special abilities as well! Integral to surviving the edge the House has against you in this game, both in Life Points and Abilities.

Then just when you think you've won, the House will reveal a special Ability of its own, and shock you with its extremely foreseeable yet highly powerful outcome! Fret not, for your hearts are true, and with a perfect hand you will be able to unlock a final Turning Point super Ability that may just save the day!

The Helpful Description:

So, in short, Blackjack But Anime is a silly game kind of about writing tropes and how just about anything can be turned into an anime-esque battle system. Fundamentally, it was an exploration for me in game design to show how easily you can take an existing rule system - so in this instance, Blackjack - and try to snaz it up a bit into something new!

The game definitely needs a lot more playtesting before it goes live anywhere physical but hopefully, it can provide a much more fulfilling experience than some of my other, shorter games. Have fun!
