The Game is the hustle, the negotiation, the dance between what you want and what you’re willing to give. It reminds you that every move is a choice -calculated, intentional, and alive with possibility. Strategy isn’t betrayal, it’s survival. When you play with awareness, you shift from pawn to player.

Reversed

The Game warns of being played instead of playing. You may be caught in someone else’s rules, or gambling more than you can afford to lose. Manipulation, deceit, or power imbalances may be steering the board. This card asks: are you choosing your moves, or are you being moved? The Game teaches that life is negotiation, but your integrity is not for sale. To know the rules is to bend them, to protect your stake while claiming your worth. Remember: walking away is sometimes the strongest move of all.
