## What is Pawket Aces?

Small paws. Big combos.

Join Pip the red panda in Pawket Aces, a poker puzzle game where one clever swap can set off a chain reaction. Swap neighboring cards to line up poker hands in a row or column: three of a kind, a straight, a flush, a full house and more. Hands clear on their own, the cards above fall into place, and the cascades keep coming. You don't need to know poker to start: tap PLAY and Pip's Practice shows you exactly which cards to swap, and How to Play walks through every hand with example cards.

Find your favorite way to play:
• Moonleaf Endless: keep pace with a rising board and chase your best score. Bombs, bamboo-bound cards and numbered ice slides join in as you go.
• Cozy Endless: no timer at all. A new row rises after every three swaps, so take your time. Cozy scores stay off the leaderboards.
• Puzzle Trail: take your time with 400 puzzles. Clear every card within the swap limit.
• Daily Puzzle: a new shared puzzle every day, getting harder through the week. Keep your streak going and replay past days from the calendar.
• Daily Expert: clear any Daily to unlock one harder board a day, with exactly enough swaps and none to spare. Every win ends on zero. Missed a day? Play it later from the calendar.
• Ringtail Run: build a run around the power-ups you pick between stages, with a new shared seed every week.
• Quests: three fresh Endless goals every day.
• Seasonal Puzzles: during holiday events, a new puzzle unlocks every day.

Pip cheers your big chains, gasps at four of a kind or a straight flush, and sighs with relief when you escape the danger line. Settle into a colorful woodland world with music, satisfying sound effects and haptics, plus options for reduced motion, high contrast, readable type, larger cards, left-handed controls and slower hand challenges.

Play with Game Center if you like: climb the leaderboards, take on friends in the weekly Endless Showdown, and earn 11 achievements.

Easy to start. Plenty to figure out.

Pawket Aces is free to play and supported by ads. No account needed.

New ways to play, and a friendlier Pawket all round.
