Game wasn't working for my Samsung Galaxy s8 plus, but Jeff from the publishing company emailed me multiple times to walk me through the process of getting it to work. My favorite card, and overall game on my phone. This will occupy me for hours. Thanks again!

HATE the end game animation!!!!!! Please lose it or give the option to cancel in game. It takes too long, covers the screen and blocks scores!!! Ruins a perfectly good game!! Obviously the game developers don't care about player experience. No reply and no change Should give option, wouldn't it be less coding just to show the end hand??

Great rendition of an excellent card game. I find the cardback graphics make the scores a bit hard to read. Perhaps some choices of cardbacks? A scoreboard at the end of a game would be nice.

It is addictive! Not sure what it means by more challenging games. All games appear to play equal, no one harder then the next, but enjoyable either way!

I love this game! However, if I close the app at any time and try to open it to play later, I can't. I can't move any cards. I have to uninstall the app, and reinstall it to get it to work again.

Having issues discarding. It won't drop on the discard pill. So can't play the game right now.

About this app

In this game you play 11 rounds against the computer and/or against other humans. The winner is the player who has the lowest score at the end of the game.

NOTE! If you have a Samsung and dragging cards in Five Kings doesn't work, please install Samsung Game Tuner. Depending on your version of Game Tuner, either:
1. Tap the MODES tab and set to Maximum Quality (100% resolution), then Save. This will affect all your games.
2. OR in the MODES tab, pick Custom and then for Five Kings set Resolution Ratio to 100%, then tap Save.
3. OR In the side Menu, tap Settings>Apps Category and change Five Kings to Non-Game, then tap Save.


You start with the round of 3's where you have 3 cards and 3's are wild (in addition to Jokers). You end with the round of Kings where you have 13 cards and Kings are wild.

In each turn, draw from the Draw or Discard pile to your hand, meld your cards (by dragging them to the meld area on the screen), and discard a card to the Discard pile.

Melds are 3 or more of the same rank, or 3 or more in a sequence, including as many wild cards as you like.
A player is "out" when they have melded all their cards, giving them a score of 0 for the round.
All other players get one more turn to improve their hands, or also go out. At the end of the round, your score for the round is the sum of the unmelded cards you have left. Cards count their face value except that unmelded wild cards count 20, and unmelded Jokers count 50!

Sound difficult? Fortunately Five Kings has five (of course) game difficulties from Beginner (where the game helps you play and gives you hints) to Challenging (where your on your own against the Expert). The Easy opponent may throw you wild cards half the time, but you'll need all your skills and strategy to beat the Expert consistently.

Five Kings is inspired by the timeless classic Five Crowns card game from Set.
