Card Shark isn\u2019t about teaching you how to play poker, but to play your opponents. There are over 20 different kinds of techniques\/tricks that you\u2019ll learn throughout the game, with some building on previous techniques. Each technique is introduced through a tutorial session, explaining the tricks of the trade while giving you as much time as you need to practice it. With some techniques I spent some time getting it just right, but it was worth it so I could stick it to those fancy rich folk.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8760384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?resize=590%2C332&amp;ssl=1 590w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?resize=646%2C363&amp;ssl=1 646w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?resize=712%2C400&amp;ssl=1 712w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?resize=1000%2C563&amp;ssl=1 1000w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8760384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?resize=590%2C332&amp;ssl=1 590w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?resize=646%2C363&amp;ssl=1 646w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?resize=712%2C400&amp;ssl=1 712w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-3.jpg?resize=1000%2C563&amp;ssl=1 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Initially the rounds are pretty straightforward; make sure you don\u2019t raise your opponents\u2019 suspicion too much or you\u2019ll lose more than your coins. This is represented through a meter that begins at zero and climbs throughout the card game. It can get very precarious \u2014 if you want to bet big you\u2019ll need to be quick to play your hand. The meter adds an urgency to pulling off these techniques, if you take too long peeking at the opponent\u2019s hand you\u2019ll tip them off. The only way to reduce the meter is to lose a round, which itself can be expensive for yourself and it may not reduce the meter enough. As the plot thickens you\u2019ll learn you\u2019re not the only one that doesn\u2019t play by the rules.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8760387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?resize=590%2C332&amp;ssl=1 590w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?resize=646%2C363&amp;ssl=1 646w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?resize=712%2C400&amp;ssl=1 712w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?resize=1000%2C563&amp;ssl=1 1000w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8760387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?resize=590%2C332&amp;ssl=1 590w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?resize=646%2C363&amp;ssl=1 646w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?resize=712%2C400&amp;ssl=1 712w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-6.jpg?resize=1000%2C563&amp;ssl=1 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Losing all of your money is the more annoying way to be set back. If you die, you get a chance to go back to the current scene with the opportunity to hold on to your money and, more importantly, your life. However when you lose all of your money, you have to go back to camp for a handful of coins and get a few small wins under your belt until you can get back in.<\/p>\n<p>Card Shark can be a fickle game at times. One wrong button press, one missed moment and it can set you back. It\u2019s super frustrating when a movement of the stick double registers, mucking up a round. Fortunately the techniques that rely on that kind of movement are few and far between, but still. If you are finding yourself getting stuck with some techniques but you want to see where the story goes, you can bump the difficulty down to give you the option to move on. If you want to really test your mettle then there\u2019s increasing the difficulty, which won\u2019t tolerate slip ups and you\u2019ll be starting from scratch.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8760383\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?resize=590%2C332&amp;ssl=1 590w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?resize=646%2C363&amp;ssl=1 646w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?resize=712%2C400&amp;ssl=1 712w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?resize=1000%2C563&amp;ssl=1 1000w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8760383\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?resize=590%2C332&amp;ssl=1 590w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?resize=646%2C363&amp;ssl=1 646w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?resize=712%2C400&amp;ssl=1 712w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-2.jpg?resize=1000%2C563&amp;ssl=1 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>The game does run the risk of introducing too many different techniques. When it gives you the option of several to use for the round, there\u2019s every chance you won\u2019t quite remember what most of them are. It\u2019s not helped by there being multiple steps, where one technique can be very similar to another. Most of the time learning the different tricks and using them while under suspicion of the opponent is exciting. <\/p>\n<p>The artwork of Nicolai Troshinsky is lovely. The colours and patterns really pop on the Switch OLED screen. The game looks like a combination of vivid scenic paintings, and the characters alternate between looking like paper puppets and old newspaper cartoon caricatures.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8760382\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?resize=590%2C332&amp;ssl=1 590w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?resize=646%2C363&amp;ssl=1 646w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?resize=712%2C400&amp;ssl=1 712w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?resize=1000%2C563&amp;ssl=1 1000w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8760382\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?resize=590%2C332&amp;ssl=1 590w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?resize=646%2C363&amp;ssl=1 646w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?resize=712%2C400&amp;ssl=1 712w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vooks.net\/img\/2022\/06\/CardShark-1.jpg?resize=1000%2C563&amp;ssl=1 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>As for how the techniques play out in the game, there\u2019s some neat ways to engage. There\u2019s simple interactions like pouring wine into a glass while you have a peek at the opponents cards. You have to focus on pouring while being careful not to overfill the cup and raise suspicions. There\u2019s bending\/marking cards, or even just thumbing through a deck to pick out aces which all have different ways to interact with the cards. The developers Nerial also have some form with card games, being the creators of Reigns and its spin offs. With Card Shark it\u2019s good to see them doing something different in a familiar space, telling a story through cards in interesting ways.\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n<p>Card Shark might not always play a winning hand, but it is an enjoyable game of cards. A story that pulls you in, an art style that is a delight, all the whilst making card games fun. You don\u2019t even have to be into card games to get the most out of it, I\u2019m definitely no wiser about playing poker. Card Shark is worth placing a bet on.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rating: 4\/5<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><em>Screenshots courtesy of the Nintendo Switch eShop. <\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vooks.net\/card-shark-switch-review\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whenever a poker mini-game pops up in a game I think \u201cnow is the time to learn how to play poker\u201d.
