Hell Hold'em

About the Game

Hell Hold’em is a tactical roguelike where poker becomes your weapon to survive.   

Poker reborn in Hell 

Hell Hold'em is the poker of the damned where cheating is the core of your combat. Hiding an ace up your sleeve. Swapping cards when no one’s looking. Burning your opponent’s winning hand. Every combat adds new infernal twists to the rules. Some hands strike harder than others. Uncovering which ones will shape your fate deeper in Hell. 

Paths of the damned 

In each of the seven circles of Hell, you will find different paths. Some are quick but deadly, others heavy with rewards. Each path hides unique demons, mini bosses, and exclusive prizes. When you return after death, you can choose a new route, face new enemies, and claim different rewards. Every run is a chance to carve a new way. 

Demons of sin 

Each circle is ruled by demons with their own cheating and combat styles. Demons are bound to sins, and sins to suits. Gresil heals when hearts appear. Adramelec steals diamonds from the pot. Leviathan devours high cards to stay alive. More than 175 demons, 14 mini bosses, 7 bosses, and 1 final enemy. Every duel forces you to adapt your deck… or remain trapped in Hell. 

Your Infernal deck 

Your deck is the only thing that survives between runs. It grows stronger and more corrupted with every victory. Defeat demons to claim new cards, magical objects, and cheating powers. 7 suits, 40 magical abilities... Before every duel, you choose which suits and powers to bring. Choosing the right ones is the key to surviving their tricks. 

Skill tree 

In Hell, survival is forged through cunning. Each victory grants skill points to shape your path across three dark archetypes: 

The Fighter: become stronger the more wounded you are, striking with relentless fury. 

The Illusionist: bends cards and twists reality to destroy the demon’s winning plays.  

The Gambler: sharpen observation, manipulation, and perform the dirtiest tricks with cards. 

Mix them for a hybrid style or go all in on one tree. Your build defines what kind of cheater you become in Hell. 

Beyond combat 

As you descend, you uncover fragments of a dark story about the soul you are trying to save, and the truth behind your own damnation. Between battles you face special encounters and cursed minigames. Free a trapped soul in the Crossroads’ Blues, awaken the Lost Queen with a twisted solitaire, or survive endless waves in the Pits of Hell. Each encounter shifts the rhythm of your descent and offers new rewards to fuel your deck.
