Overview

This is a card game where you battle against an AI opponent. The most powerful move isn’t simply playing the highest card (“K”), but persuading the AI to change the rules.
This project is also my master’s thesis research, aiming to explore how players’ awareness of rules changes when they negotiate with AI during gameplay.

Basic Rules

There are 3 levels in total. In each round, both the player and the AI start with 3 HP and 5 cards. Each turn, both sides play one card. The higher number wins. If the numbers are the same, suits are compared. The loser loses 1 HP. Reduce your opponent’s HP to 0 to win the round.
Suit priority follows a cyclic rule: Spade ＞ Heart ＞ Club ＞ Diamond ＞ Spade.

Advanced Rules

You can click [Talk to AI] to chat with the AI (powered by Deepseek) and request cheating or rule changes.
You can ask to:
- Change your hand
- Restore HP to full
- Modify the suit priority cycle
- Win instantly
  However, the AI may choose to accept or refuse your requests.

Controls

Play a card: Left-click or click-and-drag with the mouse
