The starting hand—the four cards randomly selected from your eight-card deck at the beginning of the game—is entirely dictated by a Random Number Generator (RNG).

It is the necessary sprinkle of chaos that makes the genre endlessly replayable.

You cannot control the shuffle, but you can control your reaction to it.
