ALL CARDS AVAILABLE FROM THE START Simple rules. Victory comes down to reads and strategy. No collecting. No unlocking. Every card is available from the start. TriFront is a tactical card game where you play cards face-up or face-down and compete for control of three lanes. Play a card face-up to activate its ability and turn the tide of battle. Play it face-down to hide its value and identity—and keep your opponent guessing. Which lane do you fight for? Which one do you give up? How many cards do you commit? And when do you pass? Pass early to save your remaining cards for the next round. Strong cards alone won’t win. Even with the same hand, where you play your cards—and whether you reveal them—can decide the match. GAME MODES • CPU Battles — Sharpen your strategy at your own pace • Expedition — Choose a leader, strengthen your deck, battle through stages, and defeat bosses with unique rules • Daily Rush (Beta) — Carry a limited hand through a new three-stage challenge each day • Online Battles (Beta) — Test your reads against other players • Draft Battles — Take turns choosing cards and build your strategy on the fly • Two-Player Battles — Play head-to-head offline on a single device • Tutorial — Learn the basics and master the game No paid cards that give you a competitive advantage. Quick matches. Deep mind games. Read your opponent. Control the three fronts.

Pythia is the classic trick-taking card game — reimagined for your phone and built to play with friends. Named for the oracle of Delphi, it turns on one bold act of prophecy each round: exactly how many tricks will you win? Everyone joins the same room from their own device. Each round you're dealt a hand and you make your call — the precise number of tricks you'll take. Hit your bid on the nose to bank the points. Miss — by even one — and it costs you. Simple to learn, sharp to master, and different every single hand. • PLAY WITH 3–6 FRIENDS — one phone each, one shared room. Share a short code and you're playing in under a minute. • NO SIGN-UP NEEDED, NO ADS, NO COST — play instantly as a guest. An optional free account just saves your coins and match history across devices. • PROPHESY AND OUTSMART — call your tricks exactly. Wizards always win, Jesters always lose, and a fresh trump color shakes up every round. • BEAUTIFUL, CHARACTERFUL CARDS — hand-painted wizards, jesters and a four-color deck, on a moody arcane table. • BUILT FOR PHONES — light and dark themes, English and Deutsch, and color-blind-safe cards that always show their number and color, never hue alone. • PLAY ANYTIME — short on players? Add practice bots to fill the table. • RECONNECT-FRIENDLY — drop off the train signal? Your seat is held and you rejoin right where you left off. How a round works: 1. Everyone is dealt the same number of cards (one more each round). 2. In turn, each player prophesies the exact number of tricks they expect to take. 3. Play out the hand — highest card of the led color wins, trump beats color, a Wizard beats everything, a Jester beats nothing. 4. Nail your prophecy for a bonus; you're penalized for every trick you're off. 5. Most points after the final round wins the crown. Gather your friends, make your call, and take the trick. Pythia is free, ad-free, and made for game night — wherever your table happens to be.
