You play as a homeless man who falls asleep on the cold streets — only to awaken on a desolate, demon-infested island. Armed with nothing but a handful of playing cards, you must explore treacherous landscapes, collect powerful cards, and duel terrifying demons in rounds of Pok Deng — a traditional Thai card game — to survive the night.

🎮 GAMEPLAY

• Explore: Each round begins with a timed exploration phase. Scavenge the wasteland for card chests, cursed chests, coins, and hidden shrines. But be careful — the island fights back with explosive traps, falling meteors, and thieving imps lurking around every corner.
• Duel: When time runs out, a demon appears. Your only weapon? Your cards. Play your hand in a deadly game of Pok Deng — a fast Thai card game where the highest score wins. Each enemy plays differently: some favor high cards, others gamble on doubles, and the bosses? They cheat.
• Survive: Every victory leads to a harder round. The timer shrinks. The stakes rise. The enemies grow stronger. Can you survive long enough to face the Final Demon and break the loop?

💛 SUPPORT & VISION

Pok Demon is a passion project built from the ground up by one person. Every purchase directly supports the development of this game — and if enough funding is reached, I plan to bring Pok Demon to Steam, expanding it with achievements, cloud saves, and a larger community.

Your support doesn't just buy a game — it fuels a dream.

🗺️ ROADMAP

Here's where Pok Demon is heading with your support:

• 🌦️ Seasonal Events: Rotating seasons with exclusive mechanics, limited-time challenges, and special rewards unique to each season.
• 🗺️ New Maps & Expanded World: Larger exploration areas and entirely new maps, each with distinct environments (frozen wastelands, volcanic ruins, haunted forests...) and map-exclusive hazards.
• 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Playable Characters: Multiple characters to unlock, each with their own hidden power that changes how you approach every run.

The roadmap grows with community support. The more we grow together, the bigger Pok Demon becomes.
