About the game
King is one of Turkey's best-loved four-player trick-taking card games, played everywhere from coffee houses and student dorms to family evenings and office breaks. In this free online King card game you sit at a green felt table and play classic Turkish King rules against three computer opponents or real people. It uses a standard 52-card deck, each player gets 13 cards per deal, and a full game lasts 20 deals. In every deal the player whose turn it is looks at their hand and picks the contract: either a penalty contract (No Tricks, No Hearts, No Kings/Jacks, No Queens, King of Hearts, Last Two) or a Trumps contract.
In the penalty contracts the aim is to avoid certain cards or tricks; in Trumps you try to take as many tricks as possible. When should you burn a penalty pick, and when should you save a strong hand for trumps? That balance is what makes King so addictive. There is nothing to download: play right in your browser on a phone, tablet or computer. It is played for points only, with no money and no betting.
How to play
- In the menu, pick the difficulty (easy, medium, hard) and the game length (full game of 20 deals, or a quick game of 8 deals).
- When it is your turn, choose the contract in the pop-up window. Over the game each player picks 3 penalty contracts and 2 trump contracts, and each penalty contract is played twice in total. Your remaining picks are shown in the window and on the 📋 score sheet.
- The chooser leads the first trick and play goes anticlockwise. You must follow suit; the highest card of the suit led wins the trick, or the highest trump in a trump deal.
- In No Hearts and King of Hearts you cannot lead a heart until hearts are broken, and in Trumps you cannot lead a trump until trumps are broken. If you cannot follow suit you must play a trump in Trumps, or discard a penalty card in the penalty contracts.
- Playable cards glow. On a phone, tap a card once to lift it, then tap it again (or swipe up) to play it.
- After the last deal the highest total wins. The four players' totals always add up to zero.
Scoring
| Contract | Penalty / reward | Deal total |
|---|---|---|
| ✋ No Tricks | −50 for every trick taken | −650 |
| 💔 No Hearts | −30 for every heart taken | −390 |
| 🤴 No Kings/Jacks | −60 for every king or jack taken | −480 |
| 👸 No Queens | −100 for every queen taken | −400 |
| 👑 King of Hearts (Rıfkı) | −320 for taking the K♥ | −320 |
| ⏳ Last Two | −180 for each of the last two tricks | −360 |
| ⭐ Trumps | +50 for every trick taken | +650 |
A deal ends early once every penalty card has been taken (in King of Hearts, the moment the K♥ falls). In No Kings/Jacks, No Queens and King of Hearts, if you follow suit while a higher card is already on the table, you must give up your penalty card: when the A♥ is down, the K♥ has to go!
🌐 Online King
Log in and open Online King, create a table and send the 🔗 invite link to your friends. Computers can fill any empty seats at the four-seat table.

You have 25 seconds per move. At the end, 1st place earns +25 online points, 2nd +15, 3rd +10 and 4th +5.

Tips
- Save trumps for a strong hand: with a long suit and a few aces, call Trumps; with a weak hand, pick the penalty that will hurt you least.
- Low cards are your shield: in the penalty contracts, plenty of low cards in a suit keep your high cards safe.
- Run out of a suit: once you are void, you can dump your penalty cards on your opponents when that suit is led.
- Count the cards: keep track of the high cards already played and cash your top cards at the right moment in Trumps.
- In Last Two, unload early: the first eleven tricks cost nothing, so get rid of your big cards and keep small ones for the end.
