Matrix Poker

Hi, my name is Dima and I’ve just launched a new challenging puzzle/card game, based on poker hands, in which you play against the computer.

Each round, you get 25 cards, randomly chosen from a 52 standard card deck, and you have to form poker hands in a 5x5 matrix to gain points according to the chart in the gameplay.

The highlight of this game is the algorithm I developed, based on combinatorial mathematics, that shows you, each round,  the score (but not the arrangement) it can do with those 25 random cards and you are challenged to mach it or even beat it (in which case you must be a certified genius). With this feature,  playing becomes a surprisingly challenging task as often it looks like the end of the road but the algorithm tells you there is  more, making this game suitable for players who prefer challenge over easy, casual games. If you give up, you can use the “solve” icon and the algorithm will show you the winning arrangement.
