A quick card game to play on the bus, plane, train, car (as a passenger!), or at school (between classes of course!). Great to play whenever you have just a minute of free time! Each hand can be played in 60-90 seconds! Deal 4 cards... if the topmost card in a pile is of the same suit but lesser rank than the top card in another pile you can tap to remove it! Or tap a top card to move it to an open pile to free up those below it! Didn't like the move you just made? Accidentally tapped the wrong card? Just undo your previous move... all the way back to the first deal of the game! See if you can reach the max score of 48 cards removed (leaving only 'The 4 Aces')!
Set solo
A card game where players race against the clock to score points by finding sets. The fewer cards on the table, the higher the potential score. It offers both solo play and a competitive leaderboard for friends.
- Race against the clock
- Score points by finding sets
- Higher scores with fewer cards
- Leaderboard for friend comparisons
- Dark and light style options
