CLAIM YOUR THRONE Palace+ brings the classic race-to-empty card game to iPhone, iPad, and iMessage with flexible rules, social play, and a bold royal style. The goal is simple: be the first player to get rid of every card in your hand and palace. The strategy is not. Play a card that matches or beats the top card, use special cards to change the momentum, burn the pile at the perfect moment, and force your opponents to pick it all up. PLAY YOUR WAY • Play against the computer • Pass and play on one device • Create or join multiplayer rooms • Invite friends and manage your Palace+ crew • Start games directly inside iMessage • Track wins, losses, games played, and win rate CUSTOMIZE THE PALACE Every table can play differently. Before the game begins, choose the setup that fits your crew: • 2–4 players • One or two complete decks • Adjustable palace size • Custom starting hand size • Choose how many top cards are hidden • Turn stacked 2s and 10s on or off • Enable matching-refill bonus turns • Build your own house-rule experience ROYAL CARD ACTION Play one card or multiple cards of the same rank. Match or beat the current pile, or pick it up when you cannot make a legal move. Special cards can flip the whole game: • 2 resets the pile and allows any rank to follow • 10 burns the discard pile out of the round • Four matching ranks in a row also burn the pile • Optional stacked specials can award additional turns • Optional matching refills can let you play again Your hand is only the beginning. After it is empty, battle through your face-up cards, then reveal your hidden palace cards one risky play at a time. Every move matters until one player has nothing left. PLAY TOGETHER Build a friends list, search for players, create game rooms, send invitations, and keep the competition going. Palace+ also works in iMessage, so you can chat, receive live turn updates, and make your next move without leaving the conversation. YOUR ACCOUNT, YOUR RECORD Sign in with Apple, connect through Game Center, create a Palace+ username, and keep your social profile and game record organized. NO BETTING JUST BRAGGING RIGHTS Palace+ is a strategy card game. There is no real-money gambling, wagering, or cash prize system. Just smart plays, ruthless pile burns, friendly trash talk, and the right to claim the throne. Think ahead. Empty your palace. Rule the pile. Download Palace+ and claim your throne.
