Description

Try to get rid of all your cards as fast as possible before the computer does! Drag one card at a time from your hand at the bottom of the screen to one of the four discard piles in the middle of the screen. If the arrow under the deck is pointing UP, place a card that is one value higher on top. If the arrow is pointing DOWN, place a card that is one value lower on top. Going up, once you get to 13 the next match is 1. Going down from 1, the next match is 13. There are 3 special kinds of cards: Wild cards can be placed on any card and any card can be placed on top of them. Red cards with the circular arrow on them will reverse the direction of the deck. Lightning cards will score you a bonus if you place them on top of other lightning cards. If the computer gets stuck, click on the "flip card" to put new cards on the four discard piles. Have fun!

Lightning Card is a speed card game against the computer. Both of you are racing to get rid of your cards, and whoever empties their hand first wins the round.

The catch is an arrow under the deck that tells you which way the count is going. It keeps you watching the table instead of playing on autopilot. Look for it in our card games section when you want a quick round.

Playing onto the discard piles

Your cards are laid out along the lower edge and four discard piles sit in the center. Move them one by one onto a pile by dragging. If the arrow below the deck points upward, the card has to be exactly one higher than the top card of that pile. Check the arrow before each move, since the direction you need depends on it.

Speed tips

  • Look at all four piles before you drag, one of them often takes a card the others will not.
  • Keep an eye on the arrow, playing in the wrong direction wastes precious seconds.
  • Get rid of cards that fit only one pile first so you are not stuck with them later.
