Card games you can enjoy on an app (1–10)
Competitive Karuta Online
Competitive karuta has become widely known thanks to the manga Chihayafuru.
You sometimes see tournaments on TV, and the incredible speed and the intense tension make it a thrilling sport.
This app, “Competitive Karuta Online,” lets you play competitive karuta online.
It might sound like a casual karuta game on an app, but it’s committed to authenticity: it follows the official rules—including karafuda (dead cards), fouls, and sending cards—and features readings by an officially certified Class A reader.
Facing off against strangers also adds to the tension, doesn’t it?
Solitaire
Solitaire is a game that an overwhelming number of people have played because it came preinstalled on their computers.
Also known as Klondike, this game delivers an indescribably satisfying feeling when you complete it (lol).
You can play it solo with a real deck of cards as a way to pass the time—or even treat it like a little compatibility fortune-telling—but of course there are apps too, including several free ones.
If you’re bored out of your mind or just looking to kill a few spare minutes, definitely give it a try.
Addictive Old Maid
When you think of childhood memories and killing time with family and friends over a deck of cards, wasn’t Old Maid the go-to game? It’s a classic card game that kids and adults can enjoy together.
“Addictive Old Maid” lets you enjoy that very game as an app.
Just like playing with real cards, you can play Old Maid with everyone.
You can also play solo, making it perfect for passing the time or having a quick game.
Besides Old Maid, it also includes a few other games.

Poker Soul
Introducing Poker Soul, a poker-based game.
In this game, you compete at poker using cute girl characters.
While the girls’ cuteness is a draw, another appeal is the overall Japanese-style aesthetic in the illustrations and sound.
It’s great for playing with friends, and of course you can easily play solo as well.
There’s also a competition room that you can customize however you like, which is a nice touch.
UNO
When it comes to card games, playing cards are the classic choice, but UNO is also very well-known and popular as a game that can be enjoyed by both children and adults.
And you can even play UNO as an app! In UNO, if you have a card in your hand that matches the symbol, color, or number of the card on the table, you play it.
When you’re down to your last card, you call “UNO!” and the first person to run out of cards wins.
You can play this online against others.
There’s also an official UNO app that lets you play solo or in matches.
The Bears’ School Playing Cards
This is a card game app featuring The Bears’ School, whose cute characters are popular not only with children but also with adults.
It’s an easy game where you simply play cards from your hand onto the table, so kids can enjoy it too.
The more cards you play, the higher your score, and you clear stages to level up.
With adorable bear illustrations and soothing music, it’s perfect for killing time, relaxing, or when you want a calming experience.
It’s also fun to watch the story unfold within its charming, cute world.
Trump Stadium
I want to play that card game! But I’m alone…
