Field notes
The rules section lays out a basic sequence: play a card equal to or above the last one, stack identical cards for effects, or take the discard pile when unable to play. The feature list describes offline bot matches, real-time multiplayer, friend tables joined by a WhatsApp code, and three-round tournaments. It also lists ranks, achievements, coins, avatars, and optional coin or XP purchases.
