Play blackjack with a 52-card deck. Finish seven hands with at least 12 chips, starting from 10, to clear the game. Cards do not repeat within a deck; the deck is reshuffled when exhausted.
Choose HIT, STAND, or DOUBLE with A/D and confirm with RETURN. HIT draws one card. STAND resolves the hand. DOUBLE raises your stake to 4, draws exactly one card, and resolves immediately. DOUBLE is available only with the original two cards and at least 4 chips.
Directions work on the keyboard or pad; the pad button also acts as RETURN. SPACE opens confirmation to restart this stage. NO is selected initially. Choose with A/D, confirm with RETURN, or cancel with SPACE. Play pauses during confirmation. CTRL+C returns to BASIC.
Ranks, face cards, and suits appear within individual frames, and the hidden card has a distinct back. Dealing, dealer draws, results, and chip changes appear in order, with time to inspect each hand. Wait for animations to finish before pressing again.
An ace counts as 1 or 11; face cards count as 10. The normal stake is 2. A winning 21 on the first two cards earns 3. The dealer draws until reaching 17. A tie leaves your chips unchanged. The dealer's second card stays hidden until resolution. Having fewer than 2 chips ends the game.
