Three of a Kind: the online memory game

Thirty-six cards face down and the memory of 3 to 6 people on the same call. No host and nothing to install: someone creates the room and shares the 4-letter code.

Thirty-six cards, three of every number, and nobody sees a thing: part of them in each hand, part face down in the middle. On your turn you reveal up to three — from the middle, or by asking someone for their lowest or highest — and you only keep going while they match. Miss and everything goes back exactly where it was, with the whole table having seen it. Three trios win; the trio of 7s wins on its own.

How to play

Every number exists on three cards. On your turn you flip up to three — and you only keep going while they match.

The deck

Three of every number

Thirty-six cards: three of every number from 1 to 12. Each number has its own colour, so you spot a pair from across the table.

1
Get the group together
3 to 6 players. One creates the room and picks the time per move; the others join with the 4-letter code. Tick I want to play to play; everyone else watches.

Everyone gets a hand
The cards are dealt and whatever is left sits face down in the middle. You see yours sorted low to high; of the others you only see how many cards they hold.

Turn the first card
On your turn, tap a card in the middle or tap a player — yourself included. From any hand, yours too, only the lowest or the highest card comes out: never from the middle. You can ask the same end again and the next one comes, since the card that came out stays out until the turn ends — a whole trio can come from a single hand.

Same keeps going, different ends it
Flip the second: if it matches the first, you flip a third; if it does not, the cards flash red, go back exactly where they were and your turn is over. Whoever paid attention now knows where they are.

Three alike is a trio
Land all three and they leave the game as points for you. Your turn ends anyway — nobody plays twice in a row.

How you win
Collect three trios and the match is yours. Or land the trio of 7s, which wins on the spot, all by itself. If the cards run out first, the most trios wins.
