Whot is a game for everyone. It is considered as a great way to connect, spend and enjoy time with family and friends.

In this recreation of Whot!™, up to 10 players can join and play a game from either web (https://www.playwhot.com) or android or iOS platform.

How to Play
--------------------
The goal of the game is to be the first to play all cards in your deck.
Each player plays in turn by matching the top open card by shape or number.

When a player wins or the time runs out, all cards are summed and ranked.
Players with lower total sums rank better. Each card adds the number shown on the card. However, cards with the Star shape add twice their value to the sum. The "Whot!™" card adds 20 points to the total sum.

Special cards (culled from wikipedia page);
In the game of Whot!™, certain card numbers have special features, these are:

1, Hold On - every player other than the one who played the card loses a turn and the card player plays again

2, Pick Two - the next player draws two cards from the deck as well as loses their turn

8, Suspension - when played, the next player loses their turn

14, General Market - every other player draws a card from the deck and loses a turn

20, Whot!™ - the one who plays the card can ask for any shape regardless of the card played before it. In most parts of Nigeria, the card player begins with, "I need..." after which some players (usually the one next in turn) or all the players ask, "What?" then they reply with their desired shape

Ratings and reviews

I like how simple yet interesting you've developed the system but the online version that's shown in the screenshot is not actually available though. If I could please get your reply to my email, it would be much appreciated.

Great app, good interface and its multiplayer too. Astounding job developers. the only thing i wish is that you could cusomize the rules, like 5 = pick 3 for example, but other than that its great.

Ur guys should work on the app is not good if you press the card u want to play before it moves out it takes 9 seconds to move which makes the game tireing any one having the mindset of downloading the app pls don't download it not good. Except they fix the problem
