Beat the Deck is the addictive card game that puts your instincts to the ultimate test. Nine cards are dealt into a 3x3 grid, and with every turn you must predict whether the next card will be higher or lower than the one before it. Guess right and your streak lives on. Guess wrong and that card is gone for good, shrinking your options and raising the stakes with every flip. As the grid thins out, the pressure mounts and your decisions matter more than ever. Play Red and Black Mode for an extra layer of challenge, or chase your highest streak to ignite the fire and earn bonus points. Beat every last card in the deck to set off a full celebration. Compete on Game Center leaderboards, track your personal records, and see how you stack up against the best. Simple to learn, hard to put down. Can you outlast the deck?
