Queen's Hand

Card games for the table.

Queen's Hand is a collection of classic card games for iPhone and iPad, built for playing with the people who are actually in the room. Three games, with the house rules the way your family plays them: President — known in Denmark as Røvhul — the trick-taking scramble of Fedtmule, and Seep, the partnership fishing game with its houses and its baazi. All three are free against computer opponents, forever: President and Seep have Easy, Standard and Cunning rivals with their own personas and pace, Fedtmule's difficulty comes from the cards you are dealt, and an unfinished game of each type is saved so you can put the phone down mid-hand. One optional one-time purchase, Unlock Everything, adds Nearby Play, the house-rules editor and the Longhouse — no subscription, nothing more to buy, and one purchase covers your household through Family Sharing. Nearby Play connects devices directly over Bluetooth and local Wi-Fi, so a game works on a plane, on a train, or in a cabin with no signal: no account to make, no server in between, and computer opponents fill any empty seat. The rule editor sets the ladder, bombs, clear cards, exchange counts, turn timers and scoring variants and saves them as presets, and every how-to-play screen is generated from the rules you actually chose. Sixteen achievements carve runes onto the Longhouse wall, unlocking card backs, table woods, sigils and titles that travel with you to a nearby game. English and Danish throughout, VoiceOver labels on every card and seat, and Reduce Motion respected. No advertising, no accounts, no tracking, and no data collection of any kind — your games stay on your device. Achievements can be mirrored to Game Center if you are signed in; that is optional and run by Apple.
