A downloadable game for Windows

This is a game inspired by the card game "Cheat". You are alone in a dark room with no mobility, where you are placed against 3 AI's. The mission of the game is to clear your hand to survive. You must play cards equal to, above, or below the last played cards. If you don't have a valid card to play, you must lie about the rank without being caught.

This is a small project I worked on for my EPQ for school, and it is also my first ever game (the goal of which was to create a game designed to encourage logical thinking). Feel free to critique the game in any way - and if you are willing, I will include the feedback in my evaluation of my EPQ. 

Enjoy!

A really fun game!

The controls were very easy to learn and the AI functions well enough that it resembles a real player.

Also, the sound design is very ominous, which really fits the setting of the dark room you are in.

Overall a great game and you should be proud of yourself for doing an incredible job!

Boy oh boy where do I even begin. Lebron… honey, my pookie bear. I have loved you ever since I first laid eyes on you. The way you drive into the paint and strike fear into your enemies eyes. Your silky smooth touch around the rim, and that gorgeous jumpshot. I would do anything for you. I wish it were possible to freeze time so I would never have to watch you retire. You had a rough childhood, but you never gave up hope. You are even amazing off the court, you're a great husband and father, sometimes I even call you dad. I forvever dread and weep, thinking of the day you will one day retire. I would sacrifice my own life it were the only thing that could put a smile on your beautiful face. You have given me so much joy, and heartbreak over the years. I remember when you first left clevenland and its like my heart got broken into a million pieces. But a tear still fell from my right eye when I watched you win your first ring in miami, because deep down, my glorious king deserved it. I just wanted you to return home. Then allas, you did, my sweet baby boy came home and I rejoiced. 2015 was a hard year for us baby, but in 2016 you made history happen. You came back from 3-1 and I couldn't believe it. I was crying, bawling even, and I heard my glorious king exclaim these words, "CLEVELAND, THIS IS FOR YOU!" Not only have you changed the game of basketball and the world forever, but you've eternally changed my world. And now you're getting older, but still the goat, my goat. I love you pookie bear, my glorious king, Lebron James. 🥰❤️🫶🏽

It's amazing to think this is your first game, and you produced it in Unity, very well done!

I love the dark setting and being able to look around; it fits very well with a game of bluff.

You did really well to encompass the AI functionality whilst retaining the need for human logical thinking, which beat me, as you will likely see.

If possible, can you get the game to show what the last hand played was? I may have gotten muddled, as I thought I should have been able to play a different card on a couple of occasions, but I likely forgot the last card played due to distractions.

Also, when loading, have it start on the menu page so you can see the controls and instructions on how to play.  When I pressed to start, it launched into the game, and I did not realise you needed to press right-click to play the hand.

Do not let my comments distract you from what an amazing job you have done!
