A downloadable game

Bacon Project is an anime-style card game for fans of 1v1 duels.

The game pits two criminals renowned for their destructive capabilities in an underground arena. 
Each player embodies one such character with a unique set of skills and abilities.

Your goal is simple : Defeat your opponent’s character. Victory comes from timing your abilities well, chaining strong combos, and outsmarting the other player at every turn.


  • 1 Rulebook
  • 8 Character Cards


Bacon Project also uses a standard 54-card poker deck. Only one is needed for two players.

If you would rather the rules be told to you, here is a video explaining them.

You can post any and all questions regarding the rules of the game in the Bacon Project Discord Server, https://discord.gg/Tu3uVdj


The numbered cards in the poker deck match the numbered abilities on your character card. Playing a numbered card activates that ability.

  • Numbered cards = Your abilities
  • M and R abilities = Your  damaging abilities
  • Aces = Ultimate Abilities
  • Jack, Queen, King = Shared tools that can swing the fight


In short : Your hand holds all your tricks, and your Character Card is your playbook.

Bacon project was designed to be affordable, accessible, and simple to set up. Two players only need to share a poker deck, and each possess a single Character Card. 

Instead of rewarding whoever builds the best deck like many popular 1v1 card games in today's market, Bacon Project rewards smart play  :

  • Adapting to your opponent's moves
  • Taking advantage of weak moments
  • Punishing mistakes
  • Planning ahead

Card Counting is encouraged and will certainly give you an edge.

If all this sounds appealing to you, then you know what to do.

Love the illustrations and character design! I like that I only need a deck of cards and pngs on my phone to play it =) 

the rules jpg references "page 17 of the booklet". Where is this booklet? What do S A D G each mean? 

I think I found it. Click on the rules link from this page.

Jesus Christ! Why didn't you merge all the files into a single PDF?

Heya !

The Character Profiles have been merged into a single PDF, but I left the option for people to download the profiles separately just in case ~

Regarding the custom deck of 54 cards,  I was going to put them into one pdf until I realised there were two issues :

1) The custom cards have no visible borders on white paper, which I figured would make cutting them out evenly rather complicated
2) I felt that establishing the size of the cards on paper would be inconvenient for players owning card sleeves that are not of the same size

Since Bacon Project uses a standard deck of 54 cards,  I figured that people really wanting to use the custom cards would rather have the resources independantly to make their version all the more clean and professional-looking 

That being said, I can add a pdf of all the custom cards, but it will take time

Could they be in a zip file?

Oh wow, I didn't even think of doing that !

I have just now put the playing cards in a zip !
