There are plenty of card games around these days. From Hearthstone to Inscryption to Slay the Spire, deck-builders are everywhere. But Card Shark is different. It’s not about mastering the rules, it’s about cheating your opponents. It’s set in the early 17th century, while Louis XV is on the throne, and you play a young mute boy on a whirlwind adventure, avoiding prison, cheating death (literally), and emptying the pockets of the French nobilty.
After your soon-to-be teacher Comte de Saint-Germain enters the inn you’re working in, your life changes forever. Suddenly you’re on the run, wanted dead by the king. The Comte is a master trickster, and it’s your job as his new apprentice is to assist him.
