Moon Market

Poker. Four cards in hand, exactly two at showdown, limit betting over eight hands. One heart in hand never makes a flush, however many hearts the board shows. -

Bidding. Bid a card face down for the prize on the table. Your king wins exactly once, so spend it well. -
Terminal Micro-Solitaire

Signal Fire
Original. Feed your fire toward 31, or throw a card on your rival’s and burn them out. Best of three. -
