Shorted
Balatro-style scoring on a 9×9 grid. Your deck becomes the board: trace same-color Packets into scoring shapes, install Patches that hack the rules, and rebuild the deck that refills the grid. Six Firewalls stand between you and an overloaded high score.
About
YOUR DECK IS THE BOARD
Every Packet you own gets dealt onto a 9×9 grid. Trace same-color chains, bend them into shapes, and watch the score climb from hundreds to millions. Then rebuild your deck so the next grid plays even better.
TURNS ARE EVERYTHING
A straight line scores. A zigzag scores way more. Every turn in your chain pumps the multiplier, so the best move is rarely the obvious one.
HACK THE RULES
Install up to five Patches and order them like a combo. Some pile on Bits, some multiply, some bend the rules entirely. Stack them right and one chain clears the Screen.
SIX FIREWALLS STAND IN YOUR WAY
