I don't think I do find a clear strategy until the third boss, but it is fun. I think the main reason is because I didn't understand when will the burning cards give me extra x on mults.
It's like a burning Balatro, where every heart and card is a popcorn (but the effects doesn't change.). I found that playing flush is easier, because I don't have to consider about the numbers. Meanwhile, playing straights and full houses can be tricky, and more often need protections on cards or time to think, which is kinda cool.
Nice game!
Btw, the boss fight song is a banger, like it.
