## What is Pinochle?

Pinochle brings the classic two-handed card duel to your table — the classic rules, a beautiful minimal deck, and opponents that put up a real fight.

Play a quick single deal or the full race to 1,000 with declare-out. Draw from the stock, time your melds, and squeeze every counter out of phase two, where following suit is the law and every trick matters.

FEATURES • The classic two-handed Pinochle rules — flushes, marriages, pinochles, the dix, declare-out • Three AI opponents: from an easygoing teacher to a card-counting shark • Online quick match and friend invites through Game Center • SharePlay: deal in over a FaceTime call (iPhone, iPad, Mac) • Full controller support — and made for the living room on Apple TV • Leaderboards and 15 achievements • Learn as you play: built-in illustrated rules, legal-move highlighting, and meld suggestions • No ads, no tracking, nothing sold — just cards

One deck, two players, two hundred fifty points a deal. See you at 1,000.
