The Whole Game In One Rule

6 Cards. Play 4.

Every round deals 6 cards face up. You must play 4. The 2 you leave come back next round with a dot on them, and then you have to play them. So every round you're choosing what to face now and what to face later.

Six cards face up. Four are marked Play. The other two sit lower, each with a blue dot, marked Comes Back.
The fight table in Mickey Palooka: six cards face up, three red and three black, with seats below marked Block, You and Corner.

There's no dealer. Nothing is held back for you and nothing is stacked against you. Every number on the table is the deck's.

Fair Questions

Questions.

What kind of game is it?
A boxing card game for one player. Some people call it boxing solitaire. Each fight is one shuffle of the deck, played in turns, at your own pace. You read 6 cards, play 4, and live with the 2 you left.
Do I play as Mickey?
You sign your own name on the marker. Mickey Palooka is the last man who signed one and never paid. The wires bring him up a lot.
Is the betting real?
The Book takes fictional money on your own fights. Every dollar is part of the story and part of the strategy, and none of it leaves the game.
Where can I get it?
It's coming soon to Steam for Windows and Mac, the App Store for iPhone and iPad, and the Mac App Store for macOS. Wishlist it on Steam and Steam will tell you the day it lands.

Pay What You Owe.

Wishlist it now. Steam does the remembering.
