Tablic: Classic Card Game

New: a monthly leaderboard for online games, and a one-time purchase that removes all ads. Play the computer, team up two against two, or meet friends with a room code.

Your table. Your move. Make it a tabla.

Tablic brings the classic Balkan card game to a 3D kitchen table: an embroidered burgundy tablecloth with a crocheted edge, warm wood and a mug of coffee beside the cards. Spot the next capture and clear the table for a tabla.

PLAY YOUR WAY

• Against the computer: one against one, or two against two, you and a computer partner against two computers. Choose the score to win (51, 101, 151 or 201) and what the ace counts. • Online: choose 1 vs 1 or 2 vs 2, and the game finds players for you. In 2 vs 2, the game starts at the latest 30 seconds after a second player joins, with computers in any empty seats. • With friends: create a room and send your friends its code; they type it in and join. The host can start early, with computers in the empty seats. • Online, a player who loses the connection is played by the computer until they rejoin.

AT THE TABLE

• Classic court cards, and blue card backs with the TABLIC emblem. • A paper score pad that fills in as you play. • Smart take, if you turn it on: one tap plays a card's best capture. • Hints while you learn, fast cards for a quicker game, and the full rules in How to play. • Landscape play on iPhone and iPad. • Seven languages: English, Serbian, Bosnian, Croatian, Slovenian, Macedonian and Bulgarian. The game starts in your device's language when it is one of them, and Settings → Language on the main menu changes it.

THE RULES, IN BRIEF

Four cards lie face up on the table and every player holds six. On your turn, play one card. With it you may take table cards whose values add up to your card, in one or more groups. Take every card from the table to make a tabla (not with the last card of a deal).

Cards 2–10 count their number, J is 12, Q is 13, K is 14, and A is 1 or 11.

At the end of each deal: • Each 10, J, Q, K and A scores 1 point, and the ten of diamonds scores 2. • The two of clubs scores 1 point. • The side with the most cards scores 3 points. • Each tabla scores 1 point.

The game ends after the deal in which a side reaches 51 points, or the score to win you chose. The higher total wins.

FREE, WITH ADS

Tablić is free, with ads: a short ad between games, at most one every few minutes and never during a game or in an online room, and a banner on the main menu and while the game searches for players. Watch a short video to play for an hour without ads. On iPhone and iPad the game asks once, before any ad, whether ads may use your device's advertising identifier; your answer is kept.
