Poker Puzzle

FIVE CARDS. ONE PATH. HOW BIG CAN YOU GO?

Poker Puzzle drops a poker table onto a match-3 board. Twenty cards, one grid, and a
simple question every single turn: which five connected cards make the biggest hand?

Trace a path — up, down, sideways, diagonally — through five touching cards. Let go, and
the table does the rest. Chips stack. The multiplier bites. The score slams home, the
cards you spent burn away, and a fresh column falls in to fill the gap. One move down.
Target still climbing.

HOW IT PLAYS
- Drag through 5 connected cards to lock in a poker hand.
- Every hand scores Balatro-style: chips x mult. A pair is pocket change. A flush pays
rent. A straight flush is a fireworks show.
- Cards fall, new ones spawn, and the board you were reading is suddenly a different board.
- Hit the round's target score before you run out of moves — or the run ends.

SEALS: THE CARDS THAT BREAK THE RULES
Score something big and the board pays you back. A seal stamps itself onto a card and
waits for you to come get it:
- MULTIPLIER — fold a fat x-factor into any hand that runs through it.
- SMART JOKER — a true wild that becomes whatever rank and suit scores the most. It does
the math for you. It is always right.
- MORE CARDS — six-card hands. Seven-card hands. Cross two seals and the cap keeps climbing.

Seals turn a dead corner into the best move on the board. Learning to route your path
through them — instead of just grabbing the obvious flush — is the whole game.

THE SQUEEZE
Round 1 gives you ten moves to find 1,500 points. Comfortable. Round 5 wants more and
hands you fewer moves to find it. By round 9 you are down to six moves and the arithmetic
is merciless. Every round tightens the vise: higher target, shorter clock, zero room for
a lazy two pair.

There is no luck-out. The cards fall where they fall, and the difference between a run
that dies on round 4 and a run that goes deep is entirely how well you read the grid.

WHY IT STICKS
- Sixty-second moves, hour-long runs. Play a round in a queue or chase a high score all night.
- Real poker hands — high card through royal flush, aces high and low. If you know poker,
you already know half the game.
- Deep enough to be a puzzle, quick enough to be a fidget.
- Live scoring preview: see what a hand pays before you commit.
- Your run is saved automatically. Close the app mid-round, come back, pick up exactly
where you left off.
- Table-felt greens, gold foil, chunky chip sounds and haptics you can feel. It looks and
sounds like a casino floor and costs you nothing.

NO NONSENSE
- No ads. Not one.
- No in-app purchases, no currency, no energy meter, no waiting for lives.
- No real-money gambling and no wagering of any kind — this is a puzzle game about poker
hands, not a casino.
- Works offline. Plane, subway, dead zone, whatever.
- No account required.
