Published in 2004 by IGS, Chaoji Dou Dizhu is a single-player tabletop game found in arcades. This video medal game presents a digital adaptation of the popular Chinese card game Dou Dizhu, also known as Big Two.

Successfully executing a winning strategy requires anticipating opponent moves and managing your card sequence effectively. Chaoji Dou Dizhu utilizes an ARM7 processor running at 20 Mhz and offers a straightforward, engaging experience rooted in a familiar tabletop pastime. Released initially in October of 2003, it brings the challenge of Dou Dizhu to a video arcade format.
