Built for actual GCC players: • Eastern Arabic numerals (٧ ٨ ٩ ١٠) on the cards • True right-to-left layout — not a translated afterthought • Modern Standard Arabic for system text with regional flavor in match copy • Full VoiceOver accessibility across all 10 games • Dynamic Type sized to your iOS preferences

Provably-fair shuffle: Every round is sealed with a cryptographic commitment before any cards are dealt; the seed is revealed at round-end. Tap "Verify this hand" on any finished round and your iPhone re-runs the shuffle locally — the dealt order must match. There is no way for us to cheat this; the verifier's source is open for review.

Play vs AI bots — your call: • Tap "Play vs AI" on any of the 10 games and start immediately • AI bots tuned to multiple difficulties (Easy / Medium / Hard mix) • No account, no email required for solo play • Multiplayer matchmaking rolling out post-launch

Anti-collusion for partnership games: Baloot, Tarneeb, Kout Bo 4 & 6, Basra, and Baraziliya are partnership games — partner-to-partner signaling ruins them. Our server runs per-move analysis flagging suspicious coordination so ranked play stays fair.

Game Center integration: • 10 leaderboards (one per game) with global + friends rankings • 30 achievements across all 10 games — first wins, veteran tiers, and game-specific moments (Kaboot, Shoot the Moon, Basra Sweep, Baraziliya Morto pickup, and more) • Activities and Challenges support (iOS 17.2+ and 18+)

VIP subscription and chip packs: Chips are virtual only — no cash value, no cash-out. The app is rated 17+ for simulated wagering, not real-money gambling. VIP subscription includes a 7-day free trial and unlocks higher-stakes tables and exclusive card backs.
