Summary

Blackjack goal: achieve highest card value without exceeding 21; exceeding means "bust" and automatic loss.
Card values: 2-10 worth face value, Jack/Queen/King count as 10, Ace counts as 1 or 11 depending on what benefits the hand.
Game flow: players receive two cards (one dealer card hidden), then decide to draw more cards or stop.
Dealer must draw additional cards if their hand totals less than 17.
Simplified implementation uses predetermined card list with infinite deck (cards not removed after drawing).
Project offers multiple difficulty levels with progressive hints to help structure development.
