VELATO

From the Devs

VELATO

A roguelike tactical card battler combining poker-hand mechanics with deep relational synergy builds.

In VELATO, you sit across the table from the system Bosses that watch how you play, remembers when you've bluffed, and decides whether to call you out. Every hand becomes two games at once: the hand you build, and the mind game you play to sell it.

Does the bluff go through or will the Bosses call it out? Do you dare to bluff? 🤡

Velato has 3 play modes:

Single mode - Single-player vs Bosses

Battle Mode - Player vs Player (On the Roadmap)

Hell Mode - Multiplayer (On the Roadmap)

Big table — pressure rises, stakes climb from 50 to 70 Golds and more per Table

Bluff is The heart of the game

The bluff system is the thing we're most proud of. That tension of staring down an opponent and daring them to call you — the kind that normally only exists in multiplayer poker — now lives inside a roguelike card battler. It turns every hand from play for fun to play and calculate to survive.
