Thirteen: the Imperial Court, 2v2 teams and a tutorial

Update· tranpl

Thirteen's biggest update yet: a whole new world to play in, team battles, and a coach to teach you the game.

  • The Imperial Court: a second theme set in the Nguyễn dynasty's Huế. It has its own deck, rising from the rice farmer to the golden phoenix and the golden dragon. There are six new champions: the Emperor, the Empress, the Princess, the General, the Royal Guard and the Mandarin. You fight on the royal lawn before the citadel and wait between games in the Thái Hòa throne hall. Pick your theme on the front page.
  • New music: six original songs for bamboo flute, zither, monochord, gongs and war drums. There's also Beethoven's Für Elise, Moonlight Sonata, Ode to Joy and Fifth Symphony, and Handel's Sarabande. Skip through every song from the 🔊 menu.
  • 2v2 teams: team up with a friend or a court bot. Partners trade a card before play and can signal each other, and when you go out your partner takes the lead.
  • Tutorial: four practice games with a coach who points out what to play, from pairs and straights to bombs and teamwork.
  • Ready plays and Auto: on your turn, the pairs, straights and bombs you can play are laid out for you. Auto lets the court play for you.
  • Nicknames and levels: choose the name you play under and earn experience levels. Your settings follow you to any device.
  • Polish: a sharper throne hall, and champions who cheer or rest after going out. The game asks before you leave a game in progress, and the results fit your screen without scrolling.

Gather your court and play Thirteen!
