Grab Your Deck

Card-based skateboarding

Grab Your Deck is a PC skateboarding game where you build tricks by playing cards. Cards for flips, shove-its, spins and grabs combine into named tricks: a Kickflip and a Shove-it form a Varial Kickflip, while adding another Shove-it makes a Tre Flip. An Ollie adds air. The game names combos as you make them and tallies their scores, so you can see which tricks pay off.

Risk and landing

You can extend a trick line with a manual or grind to bank more points with each link. But every trick makes you wobble, and longer lines lower your odds of landing. Stick the landing to keep the score, or slam and have it recorded in the zine.
