SCOUNDREL
Scoundrel is a single player rogue-like card game for use with a standard deck of playing cards. It was developed by Zack Gage and Kurt Bieg for Train Jam 2011. SCOUNDREL is a reimagining of that game with a few additional rules that would fit the dungeoneering theme.

Great game! I figured out the rules with this pdf http://www.stfj.net/art/2011/Scoundrel.pdf
I feel like this game has a cool concept but figuring out the rules was pretty difficult, I still am not sure I understand fully how it works.
This would greatly benefit from a proper tutorial. The controls section explain how to do something, but not what it actually does in the game, or what the goal of the game is. Otherwise it seems like a fun little game. A few more animations to make it more interesting to look at would be great.
