  • Summary: #1 paid app. in Japan! (Jan 11, 2010) “Sword & Poker” is an RPG game, based on the classic poker game. Unlike the recent RPG games that are usually complicated, we created an RPG game that is simple to use, so that everybody can enjoy. The game rules are simple! “Combine cards horizontally, vertically or diagonally to create a poker hand”
    Together with its simplicity, we also combined the fun elements of an RPG game and the shrewdness of card games to create a unique sense of fun.



    ? ? Story ?
    This is a story of a magical world based on cards.
    Our story begins with the appearance of the monstrous creature called the “Lord of Chaos” in a small and peaceful village.

    The “Lord of Chaos” has captured the magical “Stone of Creation” from the bottom of the earth, and has created a sweeping dungeon using the powers of the stone.
    Many have attempted to defeat the “Lord of Chaos”, but they were all captured by his five loyal guardians ruling the area, and have not returned.

    Now another warrior, in ready to challenge the “Lord of Chaos” and return the “Stone of Creation” back from the mighty dungeon. And so his quest begins…

    Sword & Poker is just awesome. The poker battles with monsters are spectacularly entertaining, especially as you dig deeper into the dungeon and pick up new weapons and items that serious affect the outcome of a hand.

    The gameplay is addicting and even with a clear end to the game, it'll take you some hours to finish. Everything is well-balanced, and the evolution of the game as you progress just makes it better.
