Togainu no Chi: True Blood/Poker

Included as an extra gameplay mode in True Blood Portable, selecting Poker on the main menu will take you to a new menu. The options here are: Akira's story is the only one available from the start. Clear it to unlock Keisuke, Rin, Motomi, Shiki, and Takeru. Once those are cleared, Nano, Gunji & Kiriwar, and a crazed Keisuke (more commonly known as "Kurosuke") will become available for play in story mode and Free Battle. Simply clear all stories in victory for a complete CG Library.

The basics of poker remain intact, with dog tags acting as both cards and money while chibi versions of the game's characters duel each other in a comical re-imagining of the game's universe. Arbitro acts as the dealer; once all cards are dealt, you will be given the option to change up your deck. If you're satisfied, select "OK" and a new set of options will show up: call, raise, and drop. Depending on the hand you've been dealt, you can choose to either go all in, drop out, or attempt a risky bluff. This goes on for five rounds, the most favorable outcome being having the opponent lose all of their dog tags.

Specials
The game is made more complex by the addition of special moves. By consuming solids, the player or enemy character may change up the game to their advantage. Use one when in a fix, and prepare for a surprise attack from the enemy.

Each character has two different special moves. If you're holding enough solids, you will be asked at the beginning of a turn if you'd like to use one, and be given an option between the two. Characters' specials, along with the effects they have and the solid requirement, can be seen below.
