Roguelike Deckbuilder Card Game
Cast your line into the unknown. Build your deck with fishing methods, bait cards, and powerful gear across 12 treacherous expeditions on the open seas.
About the Game
Reel & Deal is a fishing-themed roguelike deckbuilder inspired by the addictive gameplay loop of Balatro. Every run is a fresh challenge where your card synergies determine whether you sink or swim.
Start with a small fishing vessel and limited funds. Pick your fishing method, equip your bait cards, and haul in your catch. Upgrade through 4 boat tiers to unlock deeper, more profitable waters and rarer species.
With 46 gear cards that act as passive modifiers, 25 single-use consumables, dynamic weather draws, and 23 boss encounters at tier transitions, no two runs play the same. A 10-step scoring pipeline rewards smart card combos with massive multipliers.
Key Features
Deep mechanics, meaningful choices, and that "one more run" addiction.
16 fishing methods, 22 bait types, and 46 gear cards to create powerful synergies. Gear cards act as passive multipliers like Jokers in Balatro — stack them right and watch your earnings skyrocket.
Each trip starts with a hidden weather draw. Clear skies, fog, storms, and blizzards each apply unique multipliers. Adapt your strategy or ride the waves to bigger earnings.
Every fish comes in 6 quality tiers from Normal to Mythic, each with its own value multiplier. Rare catches across 4 rarity levels keep every cast exciting.
4 boat tiers from Small Fishing Vessel to Factory Trawler. Each upgrade unlocks new fishing grounds, deeper waters, and access to higher-value species.
Face The Kraken, Storm King, Poseidon, Megalodon, and 19 more unique bosses. Each one applies modifiers that test your deck strategy to its limits.
Hand-crafted pixel art visuals at 320x180 base resolution. Card animations, screen shake, particle effects, and 112+ sound files. 12 languages supported.
