Main character Dance of Cards – a passenger of the Magnific ship, who planned to get to America in search of a better life. Unfortunately, fate had other plans, and the protagonist found himself a hostage. Together with other visitors, he is forced to play poker, where life is the stake. The winner gets to see the next day, and the loser faces death. Now the player’s task is to save his life at any cost. For this, you can cheat, deceive other gamblers and enter into short-lived alliances with them.

The plot and main gameplay of Dance of Cards takes 7 days. During this period, the characters are forced to gather at the table and play a game, but the user also has the opportunity to wander around the Magnific. In addition to the main character, the project features 16 characters – with their own character traits, preferences and skills. You can negotiate with them in order to jointly win a deadly tournament or betray them when the ally is no longer needed. But in any case, it is better to be careful – your partner may not live up to expectations.

Besides poker, there are also other competitions where losers and winners can compete. The ship itself can be explored if the user wants to find out the full background of the events taking place. The atmosphere of madness is supported by appropriate musical accompaniment.
