Interesting premises and fun little widget, but there either needs to be a puzzle or something more solid to tie it all together. Also, I'd like to see the good end, but it simply takes too long to luck into it, so maybe making an automatic "win" button after losing the game four times might give a greater sense of closure.

Curses!
I had hard time understanding the controls. I didn't find it explained anywhere. Eventually I figured it out, even tho I still am not sure what each button serves for. I also kind of missed what divine intervention is good for. Idea of a game is really nice tho.
The idea is fun, but it is pure luck, and there is no way to tell if it is fixed or not, like real cassino stuff.
It's not really much of a game - more like randomly picking things out of a hat and being told if you win or lose.
Also, it's pretty much impossible to win. To win, you need to pick "Salvation" 10 times. Every time you pick "Damnation", you lose 25% of your health. And the ratios can be amazingly unfair - only 1 Salvation with 5 Damnations. If you "Deal", it will give you a modifier like "Keep picking until you win a round" - but of course, that means you get to keep picking with 1 Salvation and 5 Damnations, and each time you're taking damage.
And sometimes there's a "Devil's Wrath" which is an instant lose button.
Basically, I'm not even sure winning is possible. The "game", such as it is, is basically a massive troll.
