The game features two main card types, Jaks and Pois, which interact with each other in unique ways, requiring players to anticipate their opponent's moves and think strategically. What makes Jak and Poi special is its unique creation process, which involved crowdsourcing card ideas from over 40 designers and 20 artists. This collaboration has resulted in a game that is not only fun to play but also showcases the imagination and creativity of its contributors.
