Durban's Thunee
Read full descriptionHide full description
Thunee, the way it is actually played. Four players, two teams, twenty-four cards. The Jack is the highest card in the game and the Nine is second - the Ace is only third, which is the thing every new player gets wrong. THE CALL IS NOT A TARGET Thunee's auction runs backwards. The number you call is spotted to the other side as a head start, and the right to name trump is what you get for it. Call 40 and your opponents need only 65 more. Calling higher makes the hand harder for you, not easier. SET TRUMP FACE DOWN The high caller places one card face down. Its suit is trump and nobody knows it - not even their partner - until the first card is led. THE DECLARATIONS Show a jodhi to move the target. Claim a Thunee for all six hands. Call a Khanaak and say the other side will finish below zero. PLAY AGAINST THE FAMILY Your opponents are Uncle Rajen, Baby Aunty, Tony Mamoo and the rest, and they each play differently - one over-calls when rattled, one says nothing and quietly takes your points. - Full ruleset, sourced and documented, not a guess - Play offline, no account, no ads - Your match is saved between rounds First to twelve balls.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Durban's Thunee at none against Crazy Eights's 3. Durban's Thunee also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
