The official iPhone version of the card game Wizard. Meet the card game that's challenging, habit-forming and loads of fun! It's Wizard: a unique game with a 60 card deck!

Players bid the number of tricks they think they will win. Make the exact number of tricks bid and you win points; too many or too few and you lose points.

About

CardProphet

Features
Read full description

Card Prophet is a trick-taking card game about one deceptively hard question: how many tricks will you win this round? Call it exactly right and you score. Miss by even one - over or under - and it costs you. The deck grows every round, so your read on the table has to grow with it. HOW IT PLAYS Each round you're dealt a hand and must predict how many tricks you'll take. Then everyone plays it out, one card at a time, following suit, chasing (or dodging) tricks to land on their number. Prophets beat everything. Jesters lose to everything. Trump changes each round. The player who reads the hand best - not the one with the best cards - comes out ahead. PLAY YOUR WAY • Apprentice mode: a gentler ruleset that's perfect for kids and new players • Classic mode: the full bid-your-tricks challenge • House rules: switch on rage bidding, let the prophet card pick trump, or play with double penalties for a sharper game PLAY OFFLINE, ANYTIME No account, no connection, no waiting. Sit down against smart bots that actually play the odds - great for a quick round on a plane, a train, or the couch. Landscape table, tactile card handling, and a calm, readable board. Predict well. Fulfill the prophecy. Terms of Use (EULA): https://legal.cardprophet.co/terms Privacy Policy: https://legal.cardprophet.co/privacy

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: CardProphet at Free against Wizard's $5.99. CardProphet also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 4 months). Wizard's advantage is chart position (#25 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
