## What is Par 3?

Drop the deck. Lowest score wins.

Par 3 Cards is a fast, tactical card game where the goal is to finish with the FEWEST points, not the most. Flip your 12-card grid, swap in lower cards, hunt for three-of-a-kind column clears, and trigger the round-end only when you're confident you're ahead. Mistime it and your score gets DOUBLED.

WHAT YOU GET
- Play Online. Quick matchmaking drops you into a 4-player game in seconds. Real players when available, AI filling in the rest so you're never waiting for a game.
- Play vs AI. A full single-player experience for practicing strategy or playing offline. Pick 2 to 6 opponents and go.
- Private Games. Host or join a room with a 4-letter code. Bring friends, set the turn timer, play your way.
- Tutorial Round. A guided first game that teaches the rules and the strategy as you play. Not a wall of text. Not a slideshow. An actual round with a coach who explains each decision.

WHAT MAKES IT INTERESTING
- Negative cards SUBTRACT from your score. The -2 is the best card in the deck.
- Three of the same value stacked in a column? They all vanish. That column scores zero. Plan around it.
- You can trigger the round end early by flipping all 12 of your cards, but if anyone scores lower than you, yours gets DOUBLED. Risk and reward, every round.
- Each turn has a timer to keep matches moving. Disconnects are covered automatically so your opponents aren't stuck waiting.

POLISHED FOR MOBILE
- Designed landscape-first for iPhone.
- Sound effects and haptic feedback, both toggleable.
- Customizable game speed.
- Long-press any opponent's grid to magnify it for a close look.
- Anonymous accounts. No sign-up, no email.

IF YOU ENJOY...
Inspired by the classic Golf card game and its modern descendants like Skyjo, Flip 7, and Trash. Same lowest-score-wins rhythm, with a column-clear twist built for mobile.
