How it plays

Every chip is a threat.

Build sequences on a 10x10 board. Choose Classic for five in a row or Blitz for four. Three moves are all you need to learn.

Play a card, claim a square

Every card in your hand matches a space on the board. Play it to place your chip there.

Wild Jacks go anywhere open

A two-eyed Jack claims any open space. Use it to finish a line or block one before it lands.

One-eyed Jacks lift a chip

Remove an opposing chip from the board. Chips in a finished sequence are locked and stay put.

One link, no sign-in

Send a link. Fill the table.

Create a table, share its link or 12-letter code, and your friends join you in the lobby. Everyone taps Ready, then the creator starts the game.

  • Two to four players, solo seats or teams
  • Each player sees only their own cards
  • Drop out briefly and return to your seat

Table talk

Say it across the table.

Send a preset line or type a short one of your own during a game or in the lobby. Lines are filtered, rate limited, never stored, and you can mute a player or switch talk off.

Two rulesets, four opponents

Five in a row. Or four, fast.

Play solo offline against AI opponents from Easy to Impossible. Set the turn timer and match length, and pick up where you left off.

  • Easy: friendly, occasional misplays
  • Medium: plays solidly, watches the corners
  • Hard and Impossible: exacting and ruthless
Solo setup: Classic or Blitz, four opponent levels, and time per turn

Win recap

Relive the winning moves.

When a game ends, the board replays the moves that decided it, turn by turn, then shows the numbers behind the result.
