Details

Overview

Thirteen: Risk & Rogue is a compelling card battle game that fuses the strategic depth of the traditional Chinese poker game Thirteen Cards with the engaging progression of a roguelike item system. Developed by Xunx and published by 清粥工作室, this title offers both a challenging single-player experience through its stages and exciting online multiplayer battles.

The core gameplay revolves around surviving 24 rounds by managing your chips. Each round consists of two battles where players compare their three-row card formations.

The objective is to skillfully arrange 13 cards into a front row of 3, a middle row of 5, and a back row of 5. Crucially, the back row must rank at least as high as the middle, and the middle at least as high as the front, to avoid a foul.

Success in battles can lead to the chance of acquiring new items, adding a layer of strategic customization and unpredictability.

Hand rankings follow standard poker conventions, from High Card up to Straight Flush, with specific rules for the front row which only compares High Card, Pair, and Three of a Kind.
