LAST CARDS — PREMIUM COMPETITIVE CARD ACTION
Race to empty your hand in a fast, tactical shedding game built for quick rounds and real competition. The same rules power offline play and online servers, so what you practice is what you play.
CORE GAMEPLAY
• Standard 52-card deck plus 2 Jokers (54 cards) — 2 to 7 players, 7 cards each, classic match-suit-or-rank play.
• Can’t play? Draw one — your turn ends (drawn card can’t be played same turn).
• Multi-card turns: drop multiple cards of the same rank, build same-suit runs up or down, then bridge with a cross-suit tie-in — deep combos without losing clarity.
SPECIAL CARDS — TURN THE TABLE
Twos stack draw penalties; Black Jacks pile on; Red Jacks cancel stacks while keeping the “pick-up chain” tense. Kings reverse flow (with smart two-player behavior), Aces change suit, Queens lock suits, Eights skip, and Jokers are full wildcards — with a clear order when effects collide.
LAST CARDS DECLARATION (STANDARD MODES)
When you’re about to go out in one turn, declare “Last Cards” before your turn — miss the call or bluff the table and face penalties. High-skill, high-drama finishes.
MODES FOR EVERY MOOD
• Play with AI — sharpen tactics offline.
• Practice — same as AI; no leaderboard impact.
• Online — Quick Match or Private Game with a room code; casual wins can count on leaderboards when the match is trophy-eligible (not private).
• Ranked — signed-in quick match, MMR, and competitive ladders (60s turns).
• Ranked (Hardcore) — stricter finish rules, 30s turns, separate MMR and leaderboard (e.g., no winning on an Ace; Joker last-card restrictions).
• Tournament — knockout elimination: last to finish each round is out until one champion remains (vs AI or online).
• Bust — large-party elimination mode (up to 10 players): 52-card deck, no Jokers, round structure and placement rules that keep big tables moving; offline and online with dedicated leaderboards.
