Hi|Lo Card Game

An interactive browser game - a wagering twist on the classic higher-or-lower card game, in the spirit of Play Your Cards Right.

Problem: A game that looks simple hides real complexity - dealing cards, tracking a running wager, resolving each higher-or-lower guess, and keeping the whole thing readable, accessible and fast loading.

Approach: I designed the rules around five cards a hand to raise the stakes (guess four right and miss the fifth, and the wager's gone), then built it in HTML, CSS and JavaScript. All the logic runs client-side - game state, wagers, scoring and event handling, built from user stories and personas across every age group, and with a responsive layout.

Result: A self-contained browser game that loads quickly, works on any screen, and is documented and testable with front-end logic handled correctly.
