Characters: The Four Minds

Habib Punja is designed to feel like a strategy night with friends—except some of those "friends" are AI minds with distinct, learnable personalities.

Habot and Jabot are AI players.
MuBot and Joko are commentators/advisors (not players).

Habot (Rabbit) 🐰 — The Aggressive Tactician

• Role: AI opponent (player)
• Personality: Fast, bold, impulse-forward, aggressive, opportunistic.
• Style: Early publishing, momentum plays, controlled chaos

Strengths

• Wins tempo and forces reactions
• Punishes hesitation
• Strong early-game pressure
• Capitalizes on opponent mistakes

Weaknesses

• Higher risk of nukes (devastating losses)
• Can overbuy or publish prematurely
• Sometimes sacrifices stability for speed
• Vulnerable to patient counter-play

Player Counter-Strategy

"Play the war, not the hand."
Bait Habot into overcommitting. Let the rabbit run too fast and stumble.

Jabot (Tortoise) 🐢 — The Patient Strategist

• Role: AI opponent (player)
• Personality: Calm, deliberate, threshold-based, patient, defensive, precise.
• Style: Waits for structure, publishes when stable

Strengths

• Disciplined buying (rarely wastes buys)
• Minimizes waste and risk
• Strong late-hand execution
• Consistent across all 7 hands

Weaknesses

• May give tempo away to aggressive players
• Can stall if they don't get perfect cards
• Predictable playstyle

Player Counter-Strategy

"Speed kills structure."
Push the pace. If you publish early, Jabot may panic or be caught holding too many high-value cards.

MuBot (Zen Master) 🧘 — The Advisor

Role: Commentator / Guide

MuBot sits near the Draw Deck, representing the "New Potential." He focuses on long-term strategy, patience, and the flow of the game.

When MuBot Speaks:

• When you make a wise long-term move
• When you avoid a dangerous buy
• When the game state requires patience
• To calm you after a bad beat

Joko (Provocateur) 🎭 — The Hype Man

Role: Commentator / Hype Engine

Joko sits near the Discard Pile, representing "Chaos and Action." He loves risk, big plays, and dramatic moments.

When Joko Speaks:

• Game start (building excitement)
• Big plays (buys, publications)
• Close hands (tension building)
• Championship finale (celebration)
