Dragon Straight

A roguelike deckbuilder built on Tiến lên, the card game Vietnam plays at every Tết gathering. You already know the hands. This game is about breaking the math behind them.

How it plays

A Tiến lên card roguelike.

  1. Build a Joker engine

    Up to five Jokers rewrite the scoring rules. The right combination turns a humble Pair into a hand worth millions — across 8 Antes whose targets climb fast.

  2. CHOP!

    Play your 2s as bait, then slam Four of a Kind or a Pair Run next turn for ×1.5 Mult — the shout you hear at every Vietnamese card table.

  3. Sâm call & secret hands

    Declare you will clear a Blind in one hand for double reward. Hunt three secret hands — Four Pigs, a Four Pair Run and the 12-card Dragon Straight from 3 to Ace.

  4. Deep and replayable

    51 Jokers, 23 Boss Blinds, 22 Đông Hồ Paintings, 16 decks, 8 stakes, 20 Challenges, Endless mode and Game Center leaderboards.

Folk roots

Born at the Tết card table

Chèo theatre clowns, Đông Hồ woodblock prints, joss paper and the twelve zodiac animals — every card is illustrated in the style of Vietnamese folk art, and every scoring hand rings with tuồng opera percussion.

Land a big hand and Tễu, the jester of Vietnamese water puppetry, pops up to laugh along. Every Blind you break leaves a print made from the very cards you played, hung to dry on a bamboo pole.
