The soft currency of the game, as in any other poker game in this series (and probably the history of time), is the poker chip. GOP 3 doesn’t stray too much from tradition and has 2 sets of currencies. The player still plays through the bars and saloons of the wild west, and the setting together with the funny and exaggerated hats help the player feel in the right era.Ĭurrencies – One makes sense, the other not so much

A note about graphics and visualsĪlthough the multiplayer version of the game lost the quest-like feeling of the previous offline game, it retained the main themes and visuals. Besides, I have some nice playing history with the game and thought it deserved to be part of the series. The game has over 5M downloads in Google Play and although there are more popular poker games in terms of downloads than this one, I wanted to present a game that does it a bit (really, just a bit) different than other games. In a way, I believe that surrendering the control over the poker table to real players, is a better solution than leaving it to AI (at least in 2020) which was controlled to some extent by the studio.īack to the present, GOP 3 that was launched back in 2014, is the main product the studio is running with and tweaking up to these days. If we look back at that game, one might even argue that not only that a studio can’t control the economy of a multiplayer poker game, but maybe this is not a thing a studio wants. You could almost know when it is OK to bluff, when will a minimal raise result in a fold, and even when the AI is clearly bluffing. As an offline game, the user didn’t play against other human beings, and after playing the game for a while you could have some sense of how the AI is playing the game. GOP 2 was set in Texas in the wild west and gold rush era, while the game character was acquiring properties throughout the state with earnings from poker games in saloons and bars. Those were the days when games on social networks and F2P gaming apps just started blooming, and Youda Games was still creating some nice offline games that still had a price tag on them (weird, right?). My first encounter with the “Governor of Poker” franchise (from now on GOP), was with the 2 nd installment – GOP 2, back in 2010. In the 3 rd and last part of the “Poker Series – An Economy You Can’t Control” I will play and analyze a poker game with a more whimsical approach than the other two games in the series – Governor of Poker 3, by Youda Games, which is now part of the Dutch entertainment and media company Azerion. In this series I will try to answer the question: How can you design a game economy for a game you can’t control? As I’ve discussed in the first 2 parts of the series, the interesting thing about poker games is that the studio can’t control the table and the player’s actions directly.

Welcome to part 3 of the Poker Series, where I’ll try to crack the economy of poker games.
If you haven’t read the first 2 parts of the poker series, I urge you to go back and do it.
