PEAK BLACKJACK
Hit, stand, double. The dealer takes life, not coins.
The casino on PEAK grows again. A five-seat blackjack table now waits at every campfire: beveled wood, chrome and gold, a printed felt, a dealing shoe, and a lit sign with running lights. The dealer doesn't take coins. He takes your life bar.
Take a seat
Look at one of the five betting circles and hold interact. Every chip costs 1 % of your life bar, paid on the spot. The first chip claims the seat for this round; stack as many as you dare. The first chip at the table starts a 15 second countdown - every player can sit down and bet until the cards come out.
Play your hand
When it is your turn, the sign tells you. Then:
| Look at | Hold to |
|---|---|
| your cards | hit - take another card |
| your chips | stand - keep what you have |
| the dealing shoe | double down - your stake again, exactly one more card |
Twenty seconds per decision. Take longer and you stand. The dealer reveals the hole card and draws to 17.
What you can win
The table pays in life and in blessings, never in items.
| Hand | Pays | And on top |
|---|---|---|
| A win | 1:1 | bonus stamina (a speed boost if you doubled) |
| Blackjack | 3:2 | a heal of all your ailments, infinite stamina and speed for a while |
| A push | your stake back | nothing lost, nothing won |
Dealer blackjack
If the dealer turns over a natural, the house wins - and it curses everyone at the table who does not hold a blackjack of their own. Your own natural is the only thing that protects you from the bank.
The airport
One table stands in the airport lounge. Chips there are free and the table pays nothing: the game blocks every status change before boarding. Think of it as the demo table.
Multiplayer
Everyone in the lobby sees the same seats, the same cards and the same results. Each player carries a chip colour of their own. Only you pay for your chips and only you collect your winnings. The host deals the cards, so the deck is the same for everyone.
Every player in the lobby needs the mod.

Responsible gambling notice
PEAK BLACKJACK may cause hitting on 19, an irrational fear of the number 16 and sudden group cursing. If your life bar is more red than green, stand up, eat a Berrynana and talk to a friend. The house is not liable for lost lives, lost curses or friends who doubled down on your advice. Must be at least 18 metres above sea level to play.

CHANGELOG
Changelog - PEAK BLACKJACK
Versions follow SemVer. The version number lives in exactly one
place, Directory.Build.props; plugin, package and in-game display all read it from there.
[Unreleased]
[1.0.1] - Same seat for everyone
Fixed
- Tables stood in different places for each player. Where a table goes is now decided by the host alone and announced over the network; everyone else only rebuilds what the host reports, and players who join later ask for the current layout. The airport is unchanged - its layout is fixed in code.
- Bets were free when placed in quick succession. PEAK only books status changes in steps of 2.5 % and throws away whatever is left below a step, so a 1 % chip never reached the life bar. The mod now keeps the remainder itself and hands the game full steps only; wins are settled against the same tally.
[1.0.0] - Cards, please
First public release.
- A five-seat blackjack table at every campfire and a free one in the airport: D-shaped top on a pedestal, padded rail, printed felt with betting circles, hand areas and dealer box, chip rack, dealing shoe, discard rack, a lit sign with 22 running lights, the game's own painted look on the cabinet.
- Chips cost 1 % of the life bar; the first chip claims a seat, up to 20 chips per round.
- Rounds with a countdown, then hit, stand and double down by looking at your cards, your chips or the shoe. Twenty seconds per decision. The dealer stands on 17.
- Payouts in life and blessings: 1:1 with bonus stamina, 3:2 for a blackjack with a heal, infinite stamina and speed. A push returns the stake.
- Dealer blackjack: the house wins and curses everyone at the table without a natural.
- Fully synchronised in multiplayer: the host deals from a shared shoe, every seat, card and result is the same for everyone; only the player pays and collects.
- Card flight from the shoe, hole-card flip, chip clicks, win fanfares, a curse drone and a casino jingle you hear from a distance. Sound follows the game's master and SFX sliders.
