About Capote
Capote turns a neighborhood dive‑bar card table into a digital playground for 1‑6 players. It blends classic card games with chaotic twists, letting you bet on exact win counts and suffer a virtual shot for each mistake, four shots and you’re out. Three distinct modes—Capote, Betejack, and Truco—offer both online PvP and solo bot matches, while a cast of six bar‑regular characters and a pool mini‑game keep the atmosphere lively. You can even stream your favorite music via YouTube while you play.
01 / THE GUIDE
Game Modes
Capote offers three playable modes: the titular Capote mode, Betejack, and Truco. Each mode follows its own set of rules, with the Capote mode built around betting on an exact win count.
Players can customize match rules in any mode, and solo play is supported with bots for practice. The Betejack mode adds a roguelike twist to classic blackjack, while Truco can be played solo or in pairs.
- Try a quick round of each mode to see which rule set fits your group’s style.
- When customizing rules, start with small changes to gauge their impact on game flow.

Player Count and Online Play
The game supports 1 to 6 participants, either online PvP or solo against bots. Online tables let you bring friends together for chaotic card battles.
Matchmaking is handled through an online lobby, and the game includes in‑game chat so players can trash‑talk while they wait for others to join.
- Use the lobby’s chat to coordinate rule tweaks before the match starts.
- If you have fewer than six players, fill empty seats with bots to keep the action steady.

Character Roster
Six distinct characters populate the virtual bar, each drawn from the neighborhood setting. They appear across the game, including as opponents in Betejack's blackjack duels.
While the description does not detail unique abilities, the characters add personality and help recreate the dive‑bar vibe.
- Pick a character whose visual style matches your mood for the session.
- Switch characters between matches to keep the atmosphere fresh.

Betejack – Roguelike Blackjack
In solo Betejack, you assemble a combination of powers and face Capote’s characters in blackjack duels. Losing a run means clearing the table and starting over with different choices.
When a run ends, you can clear the table and start over, experimenting with different power choices to eventually reach Bete herself.
- Treat each run as a learning opportunity; note which power combos survive longer.
- Aim for steady progress rather than a perfect win streak to avoid early elimination.
