About this game

Chkobba, the classic card game from Tunisia, at a real card table: green felt, wooden rim, French-suited cards like the ones in every Tunisian café. Play in one tap against the computer, against players online, or invite your friends with a QR code.

PLAY IT LIKE AT THE CAFÉ
• Real Tunisian rules: 40 cards, 3 in hand, 4 on the table.
• Capture the card of the same rank first, otherwise a set of cards that adds up to it.
• Chkobba when you clear the table; leftover cards go to the last player who captured.
• Full scoring: karta (most cards), dinari (most diamonds), haya (7 of diamonds), bermila (7s, then 6s) and chkobbas.
• Games to 11 or 21 points, 1 vs 1 or 2 vs 2 with a partner.
• Optional house rules: chkobba on the last card, redeal when 3 cards of a kind are on the table.

ONLINE, NO WAITING
• “Play now”: quick online match. If nobody shows up, the AI fills the table within 10 seconds.
• Play with friends: create a table and share the code, a WhatsApp link or a QR code. Your friend lands right at your table, even if they have to install the game first.
• Rematch in the same room, automatic reconnection, and a bot takes the seat of a player who leaves.

OFFLINE VS THE COMPUTER
• 3 levels: easy, medium and hard (it counts cards).
• No internet needed.

YOUR TABLE, YOUR CHARACTER
• Pick your character: Uncle Hedi, Hajja Fattouma, Dali, Sami the cabbie, Hnia, Lina, Si Moncef… They laugh when they score a chkobba!
• Green felt, Sidi Bou Said blue, burgundy or Douz sand, and four card backs.
• Smooth animations, card sounds and haptics.
• Share your wins as a story on TikTok, Instagram or WhatsApp.

In Arabic (Tunisian), French and English. Free to play with ads: never during a round, at most one between rounds. Watch a video if you like to unlock a table or a card back.

No real money and no prizes.
