unlabelledView post →Ugh man. Card Shark is a fucking cool game. This industry blows.
unlabelledView post →So. A while ago, @devolverdigital.com sent me a code for Card Shark, along with a Card Shark Deck of Cards. And I while I streamed the game, I used the deck to show off some irl sleight of hand moves and magic tricks. BUT, I've always wanted to try doing all the moves in the game, as they're taught.
unlabelledView post →Oh my. It's adorable. Card Shark Pool has been "Pack o Game-ified". CUE 🤌
unlabelledView post →Another one-of-a-kind game - Card Shark is going real cheap. A story-led adventure about cheating at card games, working as wingman for the notorious Comte de Saint-Germain to swindle the rich and powerful out of their riches and worldly possessions. Teaches real card-cheating tricks!

unlabelledView post →Two vacation days left until I travel to @g2summit.bsky.social, and project “catch up on video games” continues…goal is to beat Card Shark, the bonus episodes of Not for Broadcast, and to finally start Balatro. I have to keep telling myself, “Do NOT prototype a board game, just relax a minute.”
unlabelledView post →Card Shark: Bought for the clever art and the fact that while I will kick your ass at cards, I don't want to play cards, because they turn everyone, including me, into an asshole. Which seems to be the plot. store.steampowered.com/app/1371720/...
unlabelledView post →ME: How about we make this game a little more…. interesting CARD SHARK: Oh yeah ME: (dips the cards in purple paint, drops them in a blender, grinds them into confetti) FIVE HUNDRED TWENTY CARD PICKUP BABY OH YEAH I WIN I WIN I WIN
unlabelledView post →We finished Card Shark last night! The last match was a doozy, and I can't believe I was able to complete this game with my goldfish brain, but I did it nonetheless. I want to reiterate again that it's SO COOL that a lot of the cards tricks taught are based on real world ones!
unlabelledView post →I recommend checking out Card Shark, though I must admit this game was a dead stop for me. I could just not get into the mechanics of the game and they kept adding more and more minigames to learn. I just did not have the brain power for this one, but reviews are high on this one!
unlabelledView post →I like trying out games a little out of the norm as far as popular genres. This is Card Shark. Marking the high and low cards to my advantage. You get to practice repeatedly but when the game is actually on the line pulling off the moves without getting caught can be intense…and tough!
unlabelledView post →the last couple of game I've played have been card themed store.steampowered.com/app/1371720/... This, and balatro. Card Shark is really interesting. Card game cheating. Hm.
unlabelledView post →So there you have it, many things for the Shiv Cult to look forward to in 2024! And who knows, maybe we'll even see some other... movement in the near future (oho, I am a subtle tease)! In the meantime, I'm Loxley, Satyr of Strategy, Caprine Card Shark and Board Game Goat. Ta-ra!/

unlabelledView post →Card Shark is a game about gambling and (oh my) cheating. Most tech peeps will stop at these words. We don’t do that! Even when the app stores are full of elaborate gambling traps.
unlabelledView post →Finally finished it! Next Fest kind of got in the way. But Card Shark is an excellent game with a fantastic little story. It is very dependent on memory and reflexes in its gameplay which did not always work to my advantage 😂 Great title though! #indiegames

unlabelledView post →An influence on my game is Nerial's Card Shark, specifically the moments where you transfer the cheating minigames into a different scenario (for good or ill) and it really communicates the lens the lead character views things through and the tools they have access to.
unlabelledView post →3. Card Shark (2022) A game all about doing sick tricks, which get sicker when you go up against other sick trickers. I wish the tutorials used more mnemonics for ease of memorization, which also would've complemented the spy speak in the finale. It also could use a level select upon completion.

unlabelledView post →Picked up Card Shark in the current Devolver Steam sale. The theme is a bit “What if Pentiment, but Barry Lyndon?” Characters in the game teach you the basic concepts of various historical card-game swindles, which you then emulate through various controller-fiddling maneuvers as you make your […]
unlabelledView post →Started playing Card Shark on #Switch. I was sort of hoping I would be playing more card games, not just doing cheating schemes. But now that I know what I'll be doing, I can enjoy the experience. It looks nice. The music is pleasant. And pulling off a perfect cheat feels pretty satisfying once you master a trick. I look forward to seeing where this one goes next! #CardShark #videogames
