This is the classic game of Hand and Foot Canasta with great animation. You and your computer team mate play against a team of computer players. The computer players do not cheat -- they follow well established rules for good play. If you are good, you will be able to win.
Each player is dealt a hand of 11 cards plus another pile of 11 cards called a "foot". Both members of a team play cards onto piles on the table that have the same value of cards. A pile of 7 or more cards is called a "canasta". Wild cards can be used on piles (making them "dirty canastas") or without wild cards (making them "clean canastas"). When you play all the cards in your hand, you may pick up your foot pile and continue playing. Once the minimum number of piles has been reached (4 "dirty canastas" and 3 "clean canastas", the first player that discards all the excess cards from their hand goes out and stops the play of that hand. A total of 5 hands are played for a game. Each hand becomes harder (more points required to begin playing cards on the table).
This game is not recommended for devices smaller than the 9.7" iPad because the cards get very small to touch with a finger.
