About

Dutch Pub

Features
Read full description

Dutch Pub is a fast-paced, "shedding" card game, inspired by classics like Shed, Palace, and Karma. The shedding game you may know, ruined by ruthless pirates. The Twist: Play Dirty! In the lawless world of the Dutch Pub, winning isn't about honesty—it's about sabotage! You can cheat! Use special Pirate Items like the Rusty Dagger to lock down an opponent's cards or a Round Shot to skip their turn. Playing dirty has never been this satisfying. Shed all your cards first to win, forcing opponents to pick up the stack if they can't match the pressure. Master the Ranks Prove your cunning and climb the leaderboards to become the most feared pirate on the seven seas. Conquer Daily Challenges to earn loot and upgrade your stuff. Level up to unlock new "dirty" items. Collect keys from challenges to dominate the Leaderboards. Risk your gold in Quick Games to win a big booty. The Basic Rules: Get Them Out! The goal is to be the first player to shed all your cards. Goal: Be the first player to empty your Hand, your Table Face-Up cards, and your Table Face-Down cards. Gameplay: Play a card of equal or higher value than the one currently on top of the stack. Pick Up: If you can't play a legal card, you must pick up the entire stack. Special Cards: The 2 resets the stack value (the next player only needs to play a 2 or higher). The 10 instantly burns the entire stack. Bonus Burn: Playing four or more cards of the same rank consecutively also burns the stack! Multiplayer and Character Customization are coming soon! Until then, stack up your rum and master the art of the dirty deal—you'll need it. Savvy?

Cabo: Card Game is a fast, social take on the classic Cabo card game—built for online play or same‑room Wi‑Fi, with a clear table layout and turn flow. How a game feels 4 cards each, memory and bluffing as you chase the lowest total. Start with a peek: only two quick looks at your own cards—use them wisely. Draw from the deck or the top of the discard; match discards when you can; replace a card in your hand and discard what you don’t want. Call Cabo when you think your hand is strong enough—then everyone gets one last turn before the reveal. Play your way Online — join a friend’s lobby code over the internet (relies on your connection; ideal on Wi‑Fi or solid mobile data). Same Wi‑Fi — discover nearby games on your local network when you’re together (you’ll be asked for local network permission when needed). Designed for clarity Big, readable table, turn prompts, and simple controls so you can focus on the game—not the UI. Notes Best with 2–4 players (as your group sets up in the lobby). Rules summary is available in the How to Play section in the app. Grab a table—online or in the same room—and see who keeps the calmest head when someone calls Cabo.
