Zhol
Read full descriptionHide full description
Zhol is a very old card game for two to six players. You play with your friends or with others, online or alone against bots. Everyone gets ten cards. You draw a card, discard one and try to lay down all your cards in sets and runs. Whoever does it first wins the round. Win three rounds and you win the match. The game is played with two decks and four jokers, 108 cards in total. Online you create your own table and send the invite link to your friends. Or you take a seat at an open table in the lobby. Up to six players can sit at a table. When two are ready, the game starts after ten seconds. Anyone who joins later watches and plays from the next round. At the table you can write, send emojis and treat another player to a tea or a coffee. You see the league and level of your opponents. If someone misbehaves, you can report, block or mute them. In the Online Top 100 you measure yourself against the best players. Not in the mood for others? You can play against bots any time, at three difficulty levels and even without internet. You play in portrait or landscape, on iPhone and iPad. Piles, hand and buttons can be moved to wherever suits you. There are 30 tables to unlock with colors, flags and designs, 11 card fronts, many card backs, over 80 avatars, frames and titles. Your progress is kept even if you delete the app. Zhol is free. You don't have to buy anything to win. After a few rounds a short video may appear. Videos for coins, tea, coffee and tables on trial are optional. If you want to support the app, that is voluntary and gives no advantage in the game. As a thank you, you get a special supporter frame. Questions or wishes? info@meholli-software.de
