In Da Crib is our love letter to the greatest card game ever created: Cribbage. And it's completely free, no ads, and no in-app purchases. We're certified crib-heads, but we got sick of all the cribbage apps looking so... dull. Boring. Unexciting. Everything that cribbage ISN'T. So we made In Da Crib. It's the same game you've always loved, but now given the treatment it deserves: pixel art, retro gaming feel, ultra-smooth cardplay, exciting animations, and rarity ranks for each hand you score. Next time you drop a 5-5-5-J with a 5 starter (nobs), your 29 point hand will get the aesthetic fanfare it deserves. Jump into a quick match and we'll find you a fellow crib tragic to play against. Or challenge your friends directly. Or hone your skills offline (no account needed) against cribbage bots which range in difficulty from easybeats, to genuine contenders, to impossible algorithms who literally cheat at cards. Take on The Gauntlet, a brutal campaign mode against increasingly difficult bot-cheaters. And all the while, unlock dozens of beautiful custom decks by completing challenges. Plus, we give detailed stats on your cribbage career. And more importantly, we keep head-to-head stats between you and your friends. Now you can definitively answer the questions, "who's got the biggest win? How many times have I skunked you? Who's got the longest streak? Which one of us is the better human being?" In Da Crib is completely free. No ads. No in-app purchases. Just our love letter to the most addictive card game in history.

Smart Cribbage Scoring can be used in place of a physical board, or when one is absent. It is especially useful for keeping track of rivalries and saving games for later. Drag your peg up the lane hole by hole, or use the scoring menu to tap the plays that made up your count. Either way, you’ll get the option to log your different plays in order to receive interesting statistics at the end of the match. It is a completely effortless process, but you can also just skip this step and just input a score. Every move of the game is listed in the editable play history. Change a score, retag a play from hand to crib, or remove a move entirely. The board rebuilds itself and nothing becomes a permanent statistic until the game ends. Every player gets a local profile. There are no login or account creation options. In Advanced Player Statistics, search any stat in plain words or scroll down the stat options drop down to view interesting facts and comparisons with your friends. The background and the board itself are customizable with images from your own camera roll.
