NYC Underground · Est. 2026 · v5.1 Supply Chain Edition
The Card Game of the NYC Streets
Choose Your Format
Street Hustle exists in two forms: a fast digital card game you can play right now in your browser, and a deep competitive CCG with a physical print-and-play kit.
Digital Edition · v5.1
The complete NYC dope trade simulator. Buy low, sell high, bribe cops, and bankrupt your rivals across all five boroughs. A faithful digital adaptation of the classic Dope Wars formula — now with a full economy, event system, and borough strategy layer.
Supply Chain Edition · v5.1
A fully-designed 2-player competitive collectible card game set in the same NYC world. Build your crew, load your dealers with product, and KO your rival's operation. 53 cards, 14 unique mechanics, and a deeply balanced system — 50 games of playtesting to prove it.
Getting Started
The CCG is easy to learn in five steps. The digital version is instant — just open and play.
Each turn, play a Borough card to expand your operation and generate Heat — the resource you spend to play all other cards.
Spend Heat to put Dealers into your Active zone. They're your fighters — but they can't do anything without product.
Attach drug cards to your Active Dealer to boost their ATK. No Stash = no damage. That's the Supply Chain Rule.
Your loaded Dealer hits the opponent's dealer. Damage = ATK minus their DEF. Drop their HP to zero for a KO.
KO 5 dealers to collect all Prize Cards for an instant win — or grind their HP to zero. First to 0 HP loses.
Core Systems
Six interlocking mechanics built from the ground up to capture the authentic risk and reward of street economics.
Dealers deal 0 damage without Stash attached. You must load product before every attack. One exception: Ghost operates on reputation alone.
Carry 4+ Stash on a Dealer and a Police Bust hits for +3 bonus damage — then strips everything. Safe maximum is 3 cards.
KO an opponent's Dealer and draw a Prize Card. Collect all 5 and win instantly. But Prize cards can't be played the turn you earn them.
Your Boroughs generate Heat each turn. Spend it on Dealers, Stash, and Actions. Expand your borough footprint to spend more every turn.
A free Action that makes all Stash cost 0 Heat for both players this turn — a sudden price spike that can flip the board state in a single turn.
No Active Dealer? You still deal 1 direct HP damage. There's no such thing as a completely wasted turn on the street.
The Deck
Every card in the 40-card starter deck serves the economy. From cheap Common crew to Legendary game-enders.
10 unique · Common to Legendary
Your fighters. From the 1-cost Street Punk to the 5-cost Kingpin. Each needs Stash to operate — except Ghost, who works on rep alone.
8 types · Weed to Golden Brick
Drug cards that attach to your Dealer and boost ATK. Free Ludes heal. Mystery Stash rolls a die. The Golden Brick (+5 ATK) hits when it lands.
16 types · Free to 4 Heat
Instant effects: draw, heal, deal direct damage, freeze a dealer, bust their stash, or drop a Federal Raid to wipe the board.
6 NYC locations · Free to play
Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, Harlem, Manhattan. Free to play each turn. Each generates Heat and provides a unique territory bonus.
