How to play War
- A shuffled 52-card deck is split evenly between two players. Each player starts with 26 cards.
- Flip one card each. The higher rank wins both cards and adds them to the winning draw pile. Aces are high, followed by King, Queen, Jack, then 10 through 2. Suits do not matter.
- Equal ranks trigger a war. Place three cards face down, then click again to reveal the deciding card. The higher card wins the whole pile.
- If the deciding cards tie again, repeat the war. A player with fewer than four cards uses as many face-down cards as possible while saving one face-up card.
- If one player cannot reveal a card, the other wins. If neither can reveal, the game is a draw.
- Win all 52 cards to win the match. You can flip manually or use auto flip against the computer. Friend matches require both players to press Ready.
