I don't think winning the card game is required, at least for this unfinished version. Where are you stuck?
i found the creepy area preceded by the golden cthulhu statue, i walked back and forth but couldn't find anything to help me progress there. i saw the hobbit dude go back to the right screen upon entering there, and i also went into the uhh barn? there's a creature there but it's literally pitch black and i dont know how i'm supposed to do anything.

Sorry for the late reply. Here is a map of the swamp I drew years ago. Left and Right are sometimes reversed, so it's a bit confusing to follow...
First, you need to reach the Burning Bridge to get a key. Then, your aim is the Locked Gate, where there is a checkpoint. You can also get the checkpoint first, before getting the key (not sure if that makes the key path easier.) I hope this helps somehow. The area with the statue and the barn is for a later point of the game.
