BROWSE 300+ CARD GAME RULES
Find rules for every card game you can think of, and dozens you haven't discovered yet. Every game includes detailed rules, winning strategies, fun facts, historical background, and cultural trivia. Browse by category, filter by player count, or search by name. Our fuzzy search finds games even when you misspell them.

LEARN HOW TO PLAY, STEP BY STEP
Each card game features rules broken into clear sections: setup, gameplay, scoring, and winning conditions. Use the Step-by-Step Guide to walk through rules one page at a time. Perfect for teaching new players at the table. Turn on text-to-speech to hear rules read aloud while you deal.

Ratings and reviews

Excellent, seen a post on Reddit from the dev and downloaded it. amazing app upgraded straight away to lose the small ads and support the dev. 😁

This is quite a handy app. Although it doesn't have a very extensive list of card games, it has the main ones as well as an adequate description for each one.

Currently lacking in content but has all the basics and is very promising!
