Rum Run

Welcome to Rum Run—a Rummy battle roguelike set in a smoky, jazz-filled gambling den.

Build runs and matching sets to take down your opponent. Every suit brings something different: Spades hit harder, Hearts heal, Diamonds earn gold, and Clubs grant temporary armor.

Draw fresh cards or take your opponent’s discards, extend runs on the shared table, and spend your winnings at the Night Market on powerful, single-use Ace cards and health upgrades.

Fight through three acts of gamblers, crooks, and bosses with their own tricks before facing Mr. House himself. Win by knocking your opponent’s health to zero—or having more health when the deck runs dry.

Vintage artwork, gangster jazz, and a familiar card game with dangerous new stakes.

The House always wins. Until you take a seat.

This game is currently in development. A free playtest version will be available on itch.io, and your feedback is welcome! Please share your thoughts and report any bugs you encounter.

This early version may contain bugs, which we’ll be working to resolve before the 1.0 release. Gameplay mechanics may also change throughout development, including adjustments to special Ace Cards and their effects to improve balance.

Known visual issue: A small square displaying “2665” may appear on screen. This does not affect gameplay.

Thanks for playing and helping improve the game!
