Dive into Mr. Magpie’s Bizarre Deckbuilding Adventure in the Elevator of Doom

Hey gamers! If you’re looking for something fresh and quirky, check out Mr. Magpie’s Harmless Card Game, which just made waves at the PC Gaming Show. Imagine the classic Minesweeper, but with a twist: it’s a card game where you’re trapped in a nightmarish elevator with a creepy puppet ready to take you out.

Developed by Giant Light Games and published by Behaviour, this game flips the script on what a card game can be. You find yourself stuck in a lift with a disturbingly amusing felt puppet that has a knack for execution. Your mission? Gather enough cash to escape, unless you fancy meeting an untimely demise—seriously, it’s as grim as it sounds!

The aesthetics are brilliantly unsettling, blending the cute with the creepy, and it nails that offbeat humor perfectly. Inside the elevator, you’re faced with a table of cards, and your job is to pick the right ones that bring you wealth and helpful bonuses while steering clear of the dreaded JERRY cards—those will end your game in a flash!

Your ultimate goal is to escape the clutches of Mr. Magpie, who believes you’re too broke for his overpriced elevator ride. The game is all about strategy as you navigate through your deck, ensuring you draw favorable cards while avoiding anything that could lead to your demise.

The game also features a metaprogression system where the money you collect can be used to buy perks, enhancing your deck for future attempts. If you enjoyed the thrill of Balatro, then you’re in for an unsettling treat with Mr. Magpie’s escapades.

While there’s no release date confirmed yet, you can keep up with the updates on its Steam page. And for those who play Dead By Daylight, there are some themed rewards up for grabs related to this game, so keep an eye out!
