I want to watch a documentary on the development of Corellian Spike Sabacc and subsequently the development of Coruscant Shift Sabacc

I'm enjoying Star Wars Outlaws, even though sometimes I have no idea what I'm doing.

But my son says you should focus on Coruscant Shift and Jedi Temple

In game screen from free mobile app Holo card Cantina showing a game of coruscant shift where you get five cards and try to hit the target on the gold dye, which this time is zero, with your positive and negative cards, which I have added up to zero with the four cards I have selected, and then there's a second round where you get some replacement cards to pick from, and then go to the showdown

Pyramid solitaire where the cards are stacked up one in the top level, then to covering the one, then three covering the two, and so on until the bottom row which is revealed face up as seven cards of positive and negative denominations. There is also a draw card pile and a discard pile that you can use as backup support when you're trying to make a match. To eliminate cards from the pyramid, you select cards that add to zero. This is a game developed by Joseph Kramer, but is on the hollow card Cantina free phone app

Okay, my ranking of the Sabacc variants available to play for free on Holocard Cantina
1. Corellian Spike
2. Classic
3. 3 Card Spike
4. Galaxy Series Spike
5. Coruscant Shift
6. Kessel
Jedi Temple is pyramid solitaire, and I would slot it in at 2.5, but it really is apples to oranges

Game selection screen, or is that the instructions how to play screen, my bad. Shows six different card game variants for Star Wars cards. The first variant is Kessel, the second is shift, the 3rd is spike, the fourth is three card spike, the fifth is classic, and the 6th is Jedi Temple. This is on the mobile app hollow card Cantina

Sorry, Bluesky, the Sabacc tables have claimed me.

Weekly phone usage report that shows blue sky at 5 hours of usage, but the sabak Star Wars card playing app called hollow card Cantina at 14 hours of usage
