What's Slamwich?

A two-player card placement game played on a 6ร—6 grid. Make Ham Slamwiches ๐Ÿท and stop your opponent from making Tuna Slamwiches ๐ŸŸ.

Sandwich ham ๐Ÿท between two bread ๐Ÿž on the board to score. First to 7 wins.

Keep an eye on your next cards (and your opponent's!) to plan ahead.

How to make Slamwiches

Each turn you play your front card onto any empty tile. See below for how slamwiches form. Gaps between ingredients are allowed.


Bombs, Hot Sauce, and Bread Slamwiches

Bomb ๐Ÿ’ฃ cards blow up any tile, perfect for shutting down an incoming opponent slamwich. You can also waste one on an empty tile if you want it gone from your hand.

Hot Sauce ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ  flips a meat tile to the other meat. Drop it on a ham and it becomes tuna, drop it on a tuna and it becomes ham. Place it on bread or an empty cell and the bottle is wasted. 

Great for rescuing your own setups or sabotaging an opponent's near-complete slamwich.

Three bread ๐Ÿž๐Ÿž๐Ÿž in a row or column form a bread slamwich. It scores no points but clears the lane, which is handy when things get desperate.


Levels & Win Streaks

Beat FishBot to reach higher levels. Each level adds random holes โฌ›๏ธ to the board. You can't play cards on holes, and slamwiches can't form across them. If you lose, you go back to Level 1.

  • Level 1: 0 holes
  • Level 2: 1 hole (1-2 win streak)
  • Level 3: 2 holes (3-4 win streak)
  • Level 4: 3 holes (5-6 win streak)
  • Level 5: 4 holes (7-8 win streak)
  • Level 6: 5 holes (9-10 win streak)
  • Level 7: 6 holes (11+ win streak)


Modes

  • vs FishBot: single player. The AI knows what it's doing.
  • 2 Players: pass and play on one device.


Have fun slamwiching!

Another great game! Original, fun, and absolutely delicious. I love the idea of turning sandwich-making into a fast and clever little game. Simple to understand, charming, and really enjoyable to play. Great work!

So kind of you again, thank you! Thanks for trying it out :)

OMFG I WAS AT 17 WIN STREAK!!!! Decided to take a short break to get prepared to fight but then the page refreshed... so I died without dying. However, I have reflected this concern and now we'll be able to save progress!!! Please join me in breaking SLAMWICH records!

Fixed, it now auto saves on your device!

I didn't intended to win but it went so well and I got all the way to 12! Got to shocked when i died and didn't get the end screen ... ever since, I wasn't able to go back to this far :(

It's a mind game at the end! I'll keep working tho! 

p.s. apparently i was playing this on a flight. 1000% recommended to preload and  you can play throughout your no matter how long flight.

12 win streak!!!!

12 win streak is crazy! Well done and thank you for the rating too!

AMAZING!

I just lost to FishBot and went on a mission to win them back! I did and now I am happy -_-

Well done, that FishBot is slippery!

such a cool game with a fresh concept (to me at least) and timeless game mechanics. it's really easy to get lost in and a fun way to pass the time. thank you for making this!

Thank you so much, that's so incredibly kind of you to say. I want to potentially add features like a win streak or different shaped levels too, open to any ideas!

So fun!

There's definitely a full game in this idea! Good work and good luck with the jam

Thanks so much, that's really kind of you. Definitely had some feedback about adding more items and maybe making it level-based, so I might keep playing with it if people like you are enjoying it. Love your voxel mining game too - good luck as well. ๐Ÿ˜Š

edit: I withdrew it from the jam because I feel like it didn't fit the theme, but appreciate all the kind comments!
