Get Yoked
Get Yoked is a deck-building game that combines gym workouts with strategic card play. Players guide a character through a series of strength-training sessions, aiming to build specific muscle groups while managing energy and avoiding overtraining. The cards represent actions like exercises, rest, and supplements. Each decision influences the character’s progress toward reaching physique competition goals, making each run a balance of risk and recovery.
Muscle building through card mechanics
The deck contains various card types tied to different body regions and recovery methods. Players must think ahead as they train muscles like legs, arms, or core while watching fatigue levels. Rest and nutrition cards provide relief or boost the impact of training. Choosing when to push harder or take a break plays a major role in the long-term success of a training session.
Core gameplay elements
A single run involves managing several interacting systems:
Cards for specific muscle groups (arms, legs, back, etc.)
Fatigue that increases with each workout card
Rest and food supplements to restore energy
Injury risk if a muscle is overtrained
Performance benchmarks that must be met before time runs out
These elements combine to create a system where smart pacing and deck management are key.
Progression and unlockable content
As players complete runs, they unlock new cards, routines, and potential training styles. Each attempt starts from a base deck, but builds differently depending on the path taken. Some players may choose high-intensity strategies, while others may rely on gradual, balanced growth. The game plans to introduce more body customization and new goal types as development continues, expanding both strategy and personalization.
Style, humor, and replay
Get Yoked uses stylized graphics and humorous animation to bring its concept to life. Despite the lighthearted tone, the card mechanics encourage careful planning. Community feedback points to both the fun and depth the game offers. With randomized decks, different muscle goals, and continuous updates, the game encourages repeated attempts and experimentation with new strategies.
