Overview

Sutja is a poker roguelite that leans into the surreal. Developed by BlueBug and published by KH Solution, this single-player card game launched on Steam on October 15, 2026.

It blends the familiar structure of poker hands with roguelike deck-building, but adds a layer of oddity: between the numbers, a stranger waits to ask you a question. That quiet, unsettling presence gives the game a distinct tone that sets it apart from other card-based roguelites.

Highlights

  • Poker-based combat: Play combinations like pairs, flushes, and straights to earn Chips and Mult, then beat each encounter's score target before your hands run out.
  • Deck customization: Start with 40 cards (ranks 1–10 across four suits), then shop for power cards, buy new playing cards, and attach stickers that alter what individual cards can do.
  • Roguelike structure: Each run reshapes your deck around your discoveries, encouraging you to combine effects and build synergies as you progress.
  • Surreal narrative layer: A mysterious stranger appears between the numbers, asking questions that hint at a deeper story beneath the card game.
  • Accessible presentation: The game features a cute, colorful 2D art style, with full audio support in English and Simplified Chinese, plus Korean text.

Who It's For

If you enjoy roguelike deck-builders like Slay the Spire or Balatro, but want something with a more offbeat, dreamlike atmosphere, Sutja is worth a look. It's also a good fit for casual players who appreciate poker mechanics without needing to be experts—the game guides you through building combos and scaling your score.

The sticker system adds a layer of experimentation that rewards creative thinking, while the short-run structure makes it easy to pick up for a quick session.
