Quick Start Guide

Room Setup

  1. Choose a game on the PlayingCards.io homepage and create a room to get a room code.
  2. Share your room code with other players and have them join your room.
  3. All movements in the game are synchronized, play the game as if you had a real deck of cards.
  4. Use another site (Zoom, Skype, etc) or telephone to talk to other players. PlayingCards.io doesn't currently have chat.
  5. It's up to you to enforce the game rules and keep track of whose turn it is, just like a real deck of cards.
