## What is PlayCards?

PlayCards is the deck of cards you pull out of your pocket — except it lives on everyone’s phone.

A TABLE IN 10 SECONDS
Choose a game and share the six-character code, QR code, or link: your friends join the table. No one around? Start a quick game with other players, or play solo against bots at two difficulty levels.

22 GAMES READY TO PLAY
Belote, Tarot, President, War, Cheat, Kems, Crazy Eights, Hearts, Rummy, Briscola, and more. The app deals the cards, manages turns, and keeps track of tricks and scores. Each game page explains what the app handles and what stays at the table.

THE HOST PAYS, FRIENDS PLAY FOR FREE
Ten games are free. For a premium game, only the player who creates the table needs to own it — invited players can join without buying anything.

YOUR RULES, YOUR DECK
Start with a familiar game and change whatever you want: cards, values, trump, turns, or win conditions. Create your own games, save them, and publish them. Once reviewed, they appear in the catalog for everyone.

FRIENDS, QUESTS & SEASON
Add friends using their friend code and meet them back at the table. Take on a daily challenge, complete three quests each week, progress through a season, unlock badges, and climb the leaderboards. Achievements and leaderboards via Game Center.

A REAL GAME NIGHT
End-of-game screen with a score sheet and instant rematch, saved house rules, table emojis, collectible cards, card backs and play mats, plus a daily chest. Verifiable fair play. Play in portrait or landscape on iPhone and iPad.

OPTIONAL ACCOUNT
Play without creating an account. An account created with an email code gives you a friend code and keeps your progress across devices.

TABLE PASS
Optional subscription: all premium and community games, the full collection of cosmetic items, tables for up to 10 players, and your statistics. Automatically renews and can be canceled at any time in your App Store account settings.

Player-created content is reviewed before publication and can be reported directly from the catalog.
