A new kind of Poker game

Pine Tar Poker is a pay-to-play card game that mixes Poker and Yahtzee. The objective is to make a number of different hands that are considered Poker or a variation of it. You'll get points for every hand you make, the value of which depends on the cards you used.

Additionally, you will get the titular Pine Tar hand that can serve as a pass card if you fail to create other hands that you want. A round of Pine Tar Poker ends when you can no longer make one of the needed hands and have no Pine Tar hand left.

Intriguing card game with lore

Being a mix of Poker and Yahtzee already makes Pine Tar Poker an interesting game, but a deeper look makes it all the more intriguing. Once the game ends, you receive coins that can be used to purchase items from the bartender who deals with the cards. These items range from mundane things like a pencil to track card dealings to magical runes that grant special powers.

Tokens can also be bought to upgrade individual cards and unlock trinkets. This feature that allows players to purchase items from a bartender with coins adds an interesting layer of strategy. It encourages you to decide whether to use your coins to purchase items that will help you win the game or save them to purchase more expensive items. This element makes the game more challenging and enjoyable.

Moreover, it introduces a bit of lore and some otherworldly elements that add to the game's depth. This makes it more immersive and adds a unique charm to the game. However, its slow progression — both in terms of gameplay and lore — can be a bit frustrating. Although it doesn't necessarily detract from the game, it can make you feel like you're just trying to accumulate enough points to progress.

An enjoyable supernatural game

Overall, Pine Tar Poker provides a unique and enjoyable experience with its interesting twist of allowing players to purchase items with coins. The game's universe features some supernatural elements that add depth to the overall experience. Though the game's progression can feel slow at times, it doesn't ruin all the fun and even allows players to appreciate the lore of the game's universe.
