About this game

Double Skunk is a cribbage roguelite built on the real game played by the book. Between hands, players add powerups that change what the count pays and collect one-use pocket cards that bend the rules once, such as shoving the rival's peg back down the board or taking the crib whoever dealt. A short guided warm-up teaches cribbage to newcomers before the first match. The campaign follows a traveling player up the Long Tally, a tournament tour of twenty-one named rivals running from a back-room parlor to a national championship, with house rules such as a chess clock and muggins at the higher tables. Outside the campaign, a weekly duplicate-cribbage challenge deals every player the same hands for a shared leaderboard, and players can face the AI at four difficulty levels or play one-on-one online.

A traveling cribbage player sets out to climb the Long Tally, a tournament tour that runs from a back-room parlor to the national championship. Twenty-one rivals stand in the way, each with a painted face and a voice, and the higher tables bring house rules of their own.
