Description

BlackJack is a digital card game that simulates the classic casino game of Blackjack. The game's primary objective is to achieve a hand value closer to 21 than the dealer's hand, without exceeding 21. Players begin with a set amount of virtual money, which they can bet in each round.

The game interface includes the Player Bet Bank, where bets are placed, and the Player Chip Bank, which holds the player's total funds. Players use the mouse to transfer chips between these banks to place bets. Once a bet is placed, gameplay options such as taking additional cards (hitting), standing, surrendering, splitting, or doubling down become available, depending on the chosen game rules and the player's available funds.

The game also includes a Discard Pile feature, which provides statistics on cards previously played. This assists players in developing card counting strategies. The game also includes a Rules menu for customizing gameplay parameters, such as the size of the shoe and dealer's play, and a Hint menu offering guidance on optimal play. Additionally, players can save their game settings and parameters for future sessions.
