Card guide

Every Powerup in Double Skunk

A complete illustrated guide to all 57 powerups on the tour, straight from the current build.

Powerups are the cards you carry between matches. You buy them in the intermission shop, win them as board prizes, and install them into your powerup slots. Once slotted, a powerup fires on its own whenever its moment comes up. No activation, no upkeep. Many can be leveled up in the shop, and each level is listed below. Every card wears three quick signals.

  • The animal is the card's family. Nine animals, nine scoring families. A fox card pays on fifteens, a rabbit card pays on pairs, and so on.
  • The frame color is the card's role. Red frames push your score up, teal frames slow the rival down, gold frames make money. You will pick it up after a match or two.
  • The gem in the corner is rarity. Rarer cards are stronger, pricier, and show up in the shop less often.
