The Card Game
By: Joni Pääskynpää
What is this game?
-----------------------
This game combines elements of a conventional card game with bingo. Play against the CPU and prove who is the ultimate card game master. The game was created in 2023 using QB64.
How to play?
----------------
Before starting, you can choose from three difficulty levels: easy, normal, and hard. You can also set the score limit to 100, 500, or 1000, with 500 being the default. The game uses a standard 52-card deck, plus 2 jokers. Both the player and CPU start with 3 cards, and the game begins with an empty 5x5 bingo grid containing squares numbered 1 to 24. Some numbers may appear multiple times. The objective is to get a bingo (a row, column, or diagonal of filled squares), which ends the round.
The game is turn-based, with the player starting the first round. Turns alternate between the player and CPU, with the CPU starting the next round.
On your turn, you can play a square by selecting 1 to 3 cards from your hand. The selected cards must total exactly the number of the square you want to play. If there are multiple squares with that value, you will claim all of them at once. Card values are as follows:
A = 1
Number cards from 2 to 10 = their face value (2 to 10)
J = 11
Q = 12
K = 13
For example, if you play cards 9 and K, the total is 9 + 13 = 22. Once you select the cards you want to play, simply click the square corresponding to that total.
At the start of each turn, you will draw cards so that you always have 3 cards in your hand. If you cannot match any squares, you can pass your turn. When you pass, you will receive 3 new cards to play in the next round. Jokers can be played at any time during your turn and allow you to steal an opponent's square for yourself.
The round ends when someone achieves a bingo. If the deck runs out of cards or the bingo grid is completely filled without a bingo, the round also ends. In these cases, points are calculated based on the squares claimed. At the end of the round, points are scored as follows:
Bingo: 100 points
Each owned square adds points equal to its value
