Five-rung climb
Mandatory Rung 1, then climb or cash out through ×30.
×1.5 → ×30
For iGaming suppliers & aggregators
The only card game where counting cards is the point.
An open discard tray and live next-card odds turn a five-rung climb into skill-adjacent, push-your-luck play — built for session length, not a single blackjack decision.

Annotated product mechanic — not a black-box RNG reveal
The differentiator
Players can see the remaining deck. They are supposed to.
Ladder is not dealer-versus-player. It is a shared shoe, an open tray, and a ladder of multipliers. Transparency is the hook — the kind of mechanic that keeps a table occupied after the first cash-out.
Open information
Every spent rank sits in the discard tray. Players can count. That is the product, not a leak.
Live next-card odds
The table publishes the chance the next draw climbs. Tension is visible, not guessed.
Longer sessions
Skill-adjacent decisions stretch hold without turning the game into a strategy spreadsheet.
Game features
A full table, not a single bet.
Main-game climb plus a side-bet rail designed for extra hold. Same shoe. No dealer hand.
Mulligan
One redraw of the starting card, at 50% of ante, before Rung 1.

Rejection Shield

Cost 30% pot
