A classic casino game, based on the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baccarat_(card_game) Punto Banco] variant. No-one actually gets to touch cards - you simply bet on which side of the table gets a higher score than the other... or whether they tie.

* Maximum bet: No limit* Valid bets: Any multiple Multiples of 20 chipsonly. No maximum bet.* Decks used: 8

xA classic casino game. Try to beat the dealer's score, but do not go over 21, or your hand goes bust. === Blackjack: Bet limits ===* Players: 1-4 plus dealer* Minimum bet: 10 chips* Maximum bet: No limit* Decks used: 4 === Blackjack: How to play === * Each player places their bet. Once bets are placed, cards are distributed.* The dealer and every player receives 2 cards. One of the dealer's cards is face down, revealing only half of what they have.* Each player plays sequentially, and the dealer always plays last.* Card values are as follows:** Number cards = Worth their face value in points** Face cards = Worth 10 points** Ace = Worth 1 or 11 points (11 if the combined total of your other cards is 10 or less, 1 otherwise; two Aces = 12 points.)* A player may '''hit''' or '''stand''', and in certain conditions, '''double down''' or '''split'''.** '''Hit''': Get a new card.** '''Stand''': Keep your hand as is, the next player acts.** '''Double down''': Double your bet, and receive one card. You will automatically stand after receiving this card.** '''Split''': If your two starting cards are the same face value, you may place a second bet of equal value to the first to split your hand into two. You receive a second card for each, and you may hit, stand, or double down on each hand individually.* The dealer stands on soft 17. (see ''Special situations'' below to understand what soft and hard hands are.) '''Payouts:'''* If your hand's score is higher than the dealer's, or if the dealer busts (hand value went over 21), you win '''2x''' your bet.* If your hand's score is equal to the dealer's, you '''push''' and you get your bet back.* If your hand's score goes over 21, you '''bust''', causing you to lose.* If you get 21 with your starting hand (10 or face card + Ace), you get a '''blackjack'''.** If the dealer also gets a blackjack, it is counted as a push.** Otherwise, you win '''3x''' your bet. '''Special situations:'''* '''Soft and Hard:''' If your starting hand includes an Ace and you did not get a blackjack, your hand is referred to as '''soft''' as long as that first Ace is worth 11. All other hands are referred to as '''hard'''. It is always safe to hit on a soft hand. However, hitting may cause your hand's score to decrease.** For example, 7 + Ace forms a '''Soft 18'''. If you hit and get a King, it is still 18, but it becomes a '''Hard 18'''. If you hit and get a 5, your hand becomes a '''Hard 13''' (7 + 1 + 5 = 13).* '''Folding:''' If the dealer initially shows an Ace, you have the possibility to '''fold'''. Doing so will return '''0.5x'' of your bet.

xAn unconventional card game that seems deceptively simple at first, but has proven diabolically addictive and very popular. The name is often shortened to ''DoN''. === DoN: Bet limits ===* Players: 1-4 plus dealer* Minimum bet: 10 chips* Maximum bet: No limit* Decks used: 4 === DoN: How to play === * Each player places an initial bet.* The dealer draws five cards face down, then reveals the first card.* The objective is to bet whether the next card will be higher, lower, or equal value to the last face-up card.** Card values in order: 2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-J-Q-K-A* If your guess is correct, your bet is '''doubled''' ('''quadrupled (4x)''' if you guessed equal value). You are then offered a choice: take your chips, or bet all of it again for another round.* If your guess is wrong, your bet is lost.* The game continues until all players have lost, taken their chips, or until all five cards have been revealed. To prevent potentially ruinous streaks of luck, a new game requires new bets. {{GMTip|tiptext=This is the simplest of the card-based casino games. As before, we recommend the [https://www.random.org/playing-cards/ random.org playing card generator].<br/>Set the deck amount to '''8''', make sure jokers are not included, then draw '''5''' cards. You may ignore the suits - only the values matter. Reveal each card as needed, then generate new cards on a new game.}}

xThe oldest of casino games. Early variants of roulette were known to the Mazes as early as Era 3. Predict where the ball will land and win big. === Roulette: Bet limits ===* Players: 1-4 plus dealer* Minimum bet: 20 chips* Maximum bet: No limit === Roulette: How to play === * Each player may place their bets on a specific number or a range of numbers (see below for the list of valid bets). A player may place more than one bet.* After each player has placed their bets, the dealer calls "No more bets," and spins the roulette, releasing the ball. To simulate such a roll, the GM rolls '''1d38'''.* The ball lands in one of the cells. A result of 1-36 corresponds to its face value. 37 corresponds to 0, and 38 corresponds to 00.* Check if the number is within the range of your bets. If they are, you win. The narrower the range, the more you win. === Roulette: Table of numbers === {| class="wikitable" style="font-size:10pt"|-| '''<span style="color:#008800">0</span>''' || || '''<span style="color:#008800">00</span>'''|-| '''<span style="color:#FF0000">1</span>''' || '''2''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">3</span>'''|-| '''4''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">5</span>''' || '''6'''|-| '''<span style="color:#FF0000">7</span>''' || '''8''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">9</span>'''|-| '''10''' || '''11''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">12</span>'''|-| '''13''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">14</span>''' || '''15'''|-| '''<span style="color:#FF0000">16</span>''' || '''17''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">18</span>'''|-| '''19''' || '''20''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">21</span>'''|-| '''22''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">23</span>''' || '''24'''|-| '''<span style="color:#FF0000">25</span>''' || '''26''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">27</span>'''|-| '''<span style="color:#FF0000">28</span>''' || '''29''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">30</span>'''|-| '''31''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">32</span>''' || '''33'''|-| '''<span style="color:#FF0000">34</span>''' || '''35''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">36</span>'''|} === Roulette: Valid bets and payouts === {| class="wikitable" style="font-size:10pt"|-!
