GET YOKED
GET YOKED is a Roguelike, Deckbuilder game about training Bodybuilders to become ABSOLUTE UNITS.
TIP: The Windows version has shadows, and looks better.
GAMEPLAY
You are a Trainer tasked with sculpting Bodybuilders to win competitions. Reach the minimum gains required to win the competition.
- Play workout cards to get GAINS, e.g., play Arms to grow those guns.
- Be careful not to fatigue your bodybuilders' muscles. Too much working out and their muscles will fatigue.
- Play rest and supplement cards to increase your gains or decrease muscle fatigue.
- Really into your Glutes? No problem become a glutes purist and get those buns hun.
The journey to Gains-Town is difficult, make smart decisions on your journey to create an ABSOLUTE UNIT.
CONTROLS
Use the mouse to drag and drop cards, and press buttons.
THIS IS A PROTOTYPE!
This is an early prototype exploring the potential for GET YOKED to be a full game!
The dream version of this game has:
- Loads of different cards.
- Bodybuilders with unique strengths and weaknesses.
- Competition finals with unique modifiers that force you to play more strategically.
- A way to choose your path, with events that give you cards, or different perks.
- Many more builds to make each run more interesting.
I've spent the past few weeks building this, and while I'm excited about it, it's still very early, so expect some rough edges, but I hope you enjoy what's been created so far!

High score of 2150! Lots of cardio and protein shakes for this run!
holy!! That’s gotta be the high score - highest I’ve ever seen!
still haven’t been able to beat it! Just spotted a bug though, playing “Deep Rest” at the end of the 10th level can force a victory even if you haven’t reached the goal
First victory! You’ve got an addictive deckbuilder here! Some disorganized thoughts:
I wish there was some way to trash cards and monitor my deck, how many cards are in it and what cards have been played.
the balance of the body parts could use a little work, the legs only seem to get longer and the abdomen stays the same no matter what
Hey congrats, thanks for playing! I didn't even know it worked on mobile - that's cool.
Discarding and checking deck/draw/discard would be very nice, I'll see if I can add it soon.
Yeah I really want to lean into the fun of getting YUGE, and the legs can use some work, plus it'd be fun to somehow grow the abs.
Solid game! Still working on getting through all the levels, I hope you'll include a way to look at your current deck and a female bodybuilder option.
E: Lol, just noticed the Glutes option has the avatar burst out of his shorts. Maybe it could be "core" so the abs and lats spread a bit.
Hey, thanks for playing! A way to view your deck and your draw/discard pile would be very nice. A female bodybuilder would be fun!
I'm not sold and having a core card replace glutes, because the glutes artwork and ensuing humor are too good. But I'll think about it as a new muscle group.
