Sweet Jenny is a gambling game played in the world of Theah and inspired by classic card games. As a game itself, Sweet Jenny is a mix of blackjack, poker, and three-card monte. It combines strategy, bluffing, mind-games, and blind luck to create a chaotic and fun diversion for sailors, dock-hands, slumming nobles, and tavern-dwelling philosophers alike.
Each player receives three unique coin tokens and uses them for ante. Using hidden hands and hidden cards on the table, players can either look at a hidden card on the table or switch out a card from their hand. At the end of the round, all players show their hands. The player with the best hand wins and gets the ante. The player with the most coins at the end of the game wins.
Character cards allow each player to break one rule of the game, giving them a distinct advantage. Players can use the character cards both face up or face down, adding to the bluffing element of the game!
