Casino Island Blackjack
Description
Casino Island Blackjack is an adaptation of blackjack, a casino card game. The goal is to bring the total value of your cards as close as possible to 21, without going over it. In the game three players compete against the dealer. In the first phase, they bet between 5 and 50 tokens. Everyone starts with two cards. If they think the next card dealt won't bring the total value over 21, they can hit (take another card from the dealer), otherwise they have the option to stand (or take no more cards). In blackjack the number cards are worth the number they display, while the J, Q and K cards are each worth ten points. The Ace card is the only one which may have two values (one point or eleven), depending on which one you need for your hand.
Every time you win against the dealer, a volcano on the right will erupt. Reaching the biggest volcano on the top, Mt. Spinnawinna, will trigger a Jackpot Spin that rewards players with Pogo tokens, mostly. There are other differences compared to a traditional blackjack game. Reaching the eighth volcano will earn you the Bust Protector. If you hit the next card, but it turns out the total value goes over 21 points, the Bust Protector will erase that card, giving another chance to play. The other addition is the Up Your Sleeve card, that is randomly dealt to a player, who has the chance of using it when needed. Both these options can be turned off at the beginning of the game.
