The short version
House of the Card is an independent publisher of classic card games, made properly for phones. Its first title is 29, the South Asian partnership trick-taking game, built so that a first-time 65-year-old can finish a game unassisted. Sign-in is optional, nothing purchasable changes play, and nothing interrupts active play.

29, in one paragraph
The South Asian partnership trick-taking game. 32 cards, a bid of 16 to 28, a hidden trump and the king–queen pair. First team to +6 wins; −6 loses.
The deck as the app draws it — faces stay light in both themes, and the back never flips.
Please don’t write
- “Casino”, “betting” or “real money” — none of these apply, and store policy treats them very differently.
- “Coins you can cash out”, or anything suggesting Kaudis have monetary value. They are closed-loop entertainment items that never leave the game.
- That an account or sign-in is needed. Sign-in is optional and carries your record, Kaudis and inventory; guest play is the full game.
