Very much enjoyed this.  The visuals were great.  Feedback was quick and satisfying.  I found myself looking for card synergies, forgoing higher-value cards for lower ones with good interactions.  Very nice work.

Small points that could get tweaked: when viewing the top cards of the deck, it's not always apparent which card is the top.  Left-most?  Right-most?  A small hint there would be nice.

I thought I would grind the first person to get my score up before moving on, but it looks like money is reset between bosses.  Bummer.  :'(

Still, great fun.  Going to play more of this.

I am not very good at black jack, maybe the odds were good but they were not in my favor until I started figuring out a bit better how the special cards worked.

This is a very fun take on Blackjack. The powers really throw a monkey wrench into the formula, you can't count as strongly on probabilities. The ability to see your own had really helps alleviate some of that statistical strain. Overall, a solid game that I could see myself wasting some time on! Thank you for making it!

A solid concept implemented well. If I had to quibble, I didn't know if aces were high or low, but that might be missing Blackjack background knowledge on my end.

Thanks. I debated adding some links or blackjack instructions. Aces count as either 1 or 11. The game automatically counts them as 1 if 11 would make you go bust.
