Working with 2 others, We wanted to create an RPG with a unique mechanic and premise so we created a game that used Blackjack as a resolution mechanic. The main narrative is that all the players are criminals who got caught in the crime they were committing. Each card dictates what exactly happens to the player as they do their actions, some being positive and others being neutral or negative. After every player busts twice, the end game begins, meaning that the next bust, that player will get arrested and be out of the game.
