About this game

Classic mode: sit down against Petya, Semyon or Sly Arkady - three difficulty levels, honest rules, and warm folk-art visuals inspired by Russian lubok prints. The Journey is something Durak has never had. Play through a chain of matches, and between them buy rule-bending artifacts at the shop: sixes become trumps, see the top of the deck, transfer without a card. Stack combos and reach the finale - again and again. New to the game, or want to get better? Turn on the Mentor: it highlights the best move and explains why. Daily challenge, achievements, levels, two card backs and cozy music. Play for a couple of minutes or a whole evening.

How to play

Goal: get rid of all your cards and don't be left the fool. • When attacking - tap a card to play it against your opponent. • When defending - tap your card to beat the one on the table (higher card of the same suit, or a trump). Tapping the attacking card auto-covers it with your cheapest option. • Nothing to beat it with - tap Take. All cards beaten - tap Done. • The trump is shown under the deck on the left - it beats any non-trump suit. Controls: single tap plays a card, double-tap on the table triggers the action button. Same with the mouse on desktop. The mentor button turns on hints. The Journey mode unlocks after a couple of matches.
