No doors
You come round on the floor of a dark room. One lamp burns over the table, a cigarette smoulders in the ashtray, the water in the glass shivers, and in the lit circle a copper coin stands on edge. No doors. Only you, the coin and the table.
Start flipping. Spend what you earn on the odds of heads, the coin's value, the streak multiplier, tempo and luck: the coin is restruck right on the table — copper into bronze, silver, gold, platinum, rhodium.
The room answers: on long streaks something happens to the fan, the cards, the padlock on the grate and the light itself — and it leaves traces for the whole run. The prologue is voiced, and the score plays live and moves with your streak.
House rules
- Heads pays. Each heads in a row pays many times more.
- Tails takes nothing — it only wipes the streak.
- Ten in a row is the goal. The faster you get there, the better the ending: five are named, from Cardsharp to Part of the Furniture; the sixth is better met than told.
