Pyramid & Casino
Description
Pyramid & Casino are two gambling card games released for the BBC Micro and Election.
-
Casino: A variant on blackjack, the player starts with £500 in cash, and computer starts with £10,000. Each turn, the player can bet £10 to £90. The player can twist for a new card, double their bet after the second card, or stick. The player first draws their cards, with the goal of being as close to 21 as possible without going over. The computer then draws their cards, and the closest to 21 takes the pot. If the computer and player are equal, the computer wins.
-
Pyramid: A total of 28 cards are displayed in a pyramid. The goal of the game is to get rid of all the cards by matching any two cards to a value of 13 that are fully exposed. The remaining cards are displayed one at a time on the screen.
