About this game

Cribbage, the classic card game, offline, against a computer that cannot see your hand. Not "does not" — cannot. Read on, because in cribbage that is the complaint people actually have.

Cribbage the way it is played at a table: throw two to the crib, cut the starter, peg your way to thirty-one, then count the hand. Fifteens, pairs, runs, flushes and his nobs, all counted for you and shown line by line. First to 121 wins, or 61 if you want the short game.

A new Daily Deal every day: the same cards for everyone who plays it, the same starter, and a streak to keep going.

WHY THIS ONE

The deal is not rigged, and you can check
Every hand carries a short Fair Deal code. Type it in later and the same cards come back — the hand you lost, exactly as it was. Send the code to someone else and you both play identical cards. A game that stacked the deck could not do this.

The opponent plays from what you can see
It decides from a view of the table holding only its own cards, what has been laid, the count, and the score. Your hand is not in there. Neither are the two cards you put in the crib — even when the crib belongs to the opponent, it does not get to look inside before the show. There is a Fair Play page in the app that lists exactly what it knows.

Every count, explained
At the show you see what each hand made and why: fifteen six, a pair is eight, a run of three is eleven. Your hand, the opponent's, and the crib. Nobody else does this, and it is the fastest way to learn to count your own.

THREE OPPONENTS WORTH PLAYING

Easy keeps its own hand and little else. Normal plays the book: value the crib by whose it is, lead low, never lead a five, stop at twenty-one. Hard weighs the crib properly and counts what is left. The difference between them was measured over hundreds of games, both seats, not guessed.
