GAMEPLAY

Just like golf, the aim of Play Nine is to take as few strokes as possible. Limit your strokes by matching pairs and scoring a Hole-In-One. The player with the lowest score after 9 holes wins!

Each player receives eight cards, with a discard pile and draw pile in the center. Players flip two cards face up to start. Moving clockwise, players can draw from the deck or discard pile and replace one of their cards. They can also flip a facedown card if they don't want the drawn card. The goal is to match vertical pairs to reduce strokes. The player with the lowest score wins the hole.

For more detailed instructions, check the app or follow the in-game tutorial.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-08-27*

App used to be fun but now there’s ads that aren’t even skippable after every round lol. Spending more time watching ads than playing the game is a little ridiculous.

### 4/5 — Good, but…

*2026-08-27, version 5.13*

I wish there was a difficulty option when playing.  The cp is dumb and you win pretty much all the time.

### 2/5 — Fun game but gets hung up on ads

*2026-08-26*

Decent game (although most likely not real players but bots) but lately gets stuck on an ad and cannot X the ad down so have to force quit…annoying

### 1/5 — Garbage !!

*2026-08-26, version 5.13*

Game is rigged !! Total trash !! 
Keep giving the opponent the good cards, let them catch up  when you are ahead but you can’t catch them  what a joke !!! I just enjoy playing to lose  9 out of 10 games

### 1/5 — Rigged computer players

*2026-08-25, version 5.13*

When you think you’re going to play with a real person and soon discover you’re playing against fake players and you lose.  Find another game because there’s no challenge knowing you’re going to lose most games to the computer

### 3/5 — Awful Redesign

*2026-08-25, version 5.13*

The newest update is awful. It’s very hard to see. I miss the simple graphics.
I love the game but need the old look back.

### 3/5 — Cross platform

*2026-08-24, version 5.13*

Played the card game last week and discovered the app! So excited to play with my bf but he’s android and I’m iPhone, when we send codes to each other it says invalid, can we not play together being different operating systems?!?

### 1/5 — Garbage !!

*2026-08-24, version 5.13*

Game is rigged !! Total trash !! 
Keep giving the opponent the good cards, let them catch up  when you are ahead what a joke !!! I just enjoy playing to lose  9 out of 10 games

### 2/5 — Bummer

*2026-08-24, version 5.13*

I liked the old version of the score card, you can’t see the new one!

### 1/5 — Really?!

*2026-08-23*

After being the greatest game, they updated the app and made it so one player always gets a crazy low hand and no matter how perfectly you play, that other player always stays close. I hate the fabricated difficulty. Poorly done!

**Developer response:** Nothing has changed with the new update! Everyone says its rigged but multiplayer is just humans playing against humans.
