No 7s, no Payoos! The whole point of Papayoo is to survive: score the FEWEST points possible, dodge the Payoos and above all the Papayoo, worth 40 points on its own. Unlike most card games, the winner is the one who scores the least. PLAY SOLO OR WITH FRIENDS • Solo mode against bots: Easy, Medium, Hard and Expert. Higher levels unlock as you progress; Expert requires three wins at Hard. • Online multiplayer: create or join a game, invite your friends, share your profile by QR code. Pending games are visible from the home screen. JOKERS AND SPECIAL POWERS Unlocked as you progress: Trick history, AI hint, Played-card stats, Sonar (who holds the Papayoo?), Defense (the Papayoo drops from 40 to 20 points), Hand swap. LEADERBOARDS AND PROGRESSION Monthly leaderboard and ELO rating, tracked separately for solo and multiplayer, with a Champion of the Month badge for the top players. Full game history, player profile, achievements to unlock. SHOP AND CUSTOMISATION Customisable card decks and playmats, weekly gold, quests to claim. Gold is also earned from the Payout Pyramid, the daily Joker Wheel, or rewarded videos. BUILT-IN RULES The goal, card values, the card exchange at the start of each hand, the die roll that sets the Payoo suit, then trick-taking play: everything is explained in the app, with a tutorial for your first games. PAPAYOO PREMIUM A one-time purchase, not a subscription: no more ads and all jokers unlimited, forever. The game is free, ad-supported, and translated into fifteen languages. Papayoo is a card game published by Gigamic. This app is an independent adaptation, not affiliated with the publisher or trademark holder.
