Under the Eye — a gritty 1980s brutalist strategy card game based on Romanian Whist, by StorkNest Games.
Under the Eye is a gritty 1980s indie card game built on the
bones of Wizard. The world and regime you once knew is
crumbling day by day. The Major won't let you go until you've
beat her at her own twisted card game. Bid, cheat and bend the rules to
see another day — or die and be forgotten.

A strategic indie card game based on Romanian Whist (Wizard Card Game), rebuilt for
a brutalist 1980s interrogation room. Custom deck. Custom rules. The Major
likes watching new players figure it out — and she enjoys watching them lose.
01
The Deck — 16 face cards, 4 suits
Sixteen face cards. Four different suits. This deck was custom made, so learn it well. The Major likes watching new players figure it out.
02
The Law — a rotating trump suit
Every round, one suit becomes the law. It overrules everything else on the table. Play accordingly if you want to keep your head.
The law turns each round. The smart player learns when to fold the right cards — and when to claim the wrong one.
03
Cigarettes — the only currency
Cigarettes are the only currency in the room. Earn them by winning bids and betting your hand. Use them to buy special cards and twist the game in your favor.
Don't waste them on smoking.
04
The Machine — nine cards behind dirty glass
Nine cards behind dirty glass. Pay in cigarettes to bend the rules. Some keep you alive another round. Some don't.
Choose wrong and you won't get a second chance. This machine doesn't return change.
05
The Room — explore for clues
The room holds more than you'd believe. Peek around and you might find useful things — or more about the world around you.
Placeholder slots for now. Add the real captures to the SCREENS list in app.jsx, then toggle on.
