Match the rank or suit of the top discard. Stuck (or bluffing)? Draw 1, then play or pass. Tap a card to play it right away. Brush a finger across your cards to have a proper look — the card under your finger stays raised after the brush. Tap it to play, brush past the end of the fan to put it back down, or swipe up mid-brush to play it in one motion.

🎚️ Difficulty. Easy: your playable cards are highlighted. Sharp: no hints — every card looks playable, just like holding a real hand. Play a card that doesn't match and it's chehupenzi (a blunder!): your wrong card is shown face-up to the whole table, you pick up a penalty card, and you miss your turn — so no random plays! 🫣

7 — Skip. Next player sits out (they can counter with their own 7).
8 — Declare. Wild anytime; name the suit. Another 8 on top is a counter-attack: it kills the declaration — the counter 8's own suit stands, no re-declaring (with only 2 players left, every 8 declares).
Jack — Reverse. Flip direction for the rest of the game, or bounce to the next player and straight back to you. Heads-up (2 players): either way, you play again.
2 — Pick 2. Victim blocks with an Ace, stacks their own 2/Joker, or draws. First penalty card drawn is an Ace? Play it free.
Joker — Pick 5. Playable anytime. Stacks with 2s. After the penalty is settled, the next player may play any card — that card sets the new suit.
Ace — Block & dump. Blocks attacks; also lets you shed every card of the Ace's suit.
👑 King — Keep playing. After a King, immediately play another card of the King's suit, another King (chains!), an 8, or a Joker. No follow? Draw 1 and your turn ends. Going out on a King does not win the round — you're in air.
🍀 Lucky Card (optional). Before a penalty, gamble the top of the stock: Ace blocks, 2/Joker adds to the pile, anything else costs you penalty +1.

“In air”. Going out on any special card (7, 8, Jack, 2, Joker, Ace, King) doesn't end the round — you're in air: draw 1 when your turn comes back and keep going. Only a normal card (no special power) wins the round clean.

Scoring: 2=25 · 7=14 · 8=40 · Joker=50 · K/Q/J=10 · Ace=11 (but the Ace of Spades = 100!) · numbers face. Knockout eliminates the fattest hand each round; points race banks opponents' cards toward 100–350.

💣 Ace of Spades — the bomb. Play it anytime on any card, and any card can be played on top of it. But get caught holding it when a round ends and it costs you 100 points — dump it early!

⏱ Turn timer. 2 minutes per turn. You also get a personal bank of two +1 minute extensions for the whole game — tap +1 min in the buttons under your hand when you need thinking time, but spend them wisely: once they're gone, they're gone. Run out and the game plays for you. The last 5 seconds tick down with a countdown sound, and a gentle chime sounds whenever your turn begins.
