About Scopa Sweep
Scopa Sweep is a roguelike deckbuilder based on the Italian capture card game Scopa. Players capture table cards by matching values or combining cards whose values total the played card. Clearing the table increases the round's multiplier.
Between rounds, players buy Patrons that modify scoring and rules. Card enhancements affect individual cards, while objective bonuses carry forward within the run. Boss tables introduce additional rules. The game has eight tables, with an endless mode available beyond Table 8.
The demo is participating in Steam Next Fest from 19 to 26 October 2026. The full game is scheduled for release on 26 October 2026.
