Capote! offers the most generous Steam Next Fest Demo ever

Luski Game Studio have partnered with CriticalLeap to make a critical leap themselves and release the entirety of their upcoming Brazilian bar game Capote! for free during Steam Next Fest!

From now through October 20th at 10am PDT you can play all the content that’s in Capote! ahead of its Steam Early Access launch on October 23rd.

For the uninitiated, Capote! offers a virtual trip to a Brazilian bar where 2-6 players compete in a card game of wits, bluffing, luck, and strategy. Inspired by classic Brazilian bar games like Trucco, Capote! transports players to a sweltering Brazilian pub, where colorful characters while away the days competing in card games until only one of them is steady enough to stand. With a low barrier to entry and a high skill ceiling, Capote! offers a fun time, regardless of how good you are at it.

At the start of each round, players bet how many points they think they’ll amass, then play their cards round-by-round aiming to hit that exact number. Score too high or too low, and you’ll have to take a virtual shot for each point you’re off from your prediction. Hit four shots and… you’re out. Capotado!

Get dealt a bad hand?
Don’t worry, as messing with your friends is a valid strategy. Play your special cards at the right time to twist the odds, sabotage their bets, or turn a sure win into chaos. Victory is nice, but laughing at your friend’s downfall is even nicer. Capote! is all about soaking in the lazy Sunday vibes and having a good time with a bit of unpredictability.
