The pile is removed whenever four cards* of the same number are played in succession, or when a 10 or Joker is played. Players who cannot play a card equal in number or lower than the top pile card must pick up the pile and add it to their hand. Four face-down mystery cards add a unique element of strategy. A hand ends when a player plays his/her last card. Remaining players count points of unplayed cards in their hands, and a game ends when a player reaches 300 points. Players: You play against three AI Opponents - Left, Top, and Right. Card Deck: Swoop uses two combined decks of standard playing cards. Additionally, four Jokers are added, making a total of 108 cards. Point values of cards are as follows: - Ace-Nine: face-value (1-9) points - Jack, Queen, King: 10 points - Ten, Joker (Swoop Card): 50 points   Playing the Game: 1. Play begins by dealing 19 cards to each player. Players then place 4 of these cards face-down on the table (Mystery Cards) and cover each of them with 1 card face-up. The remaining 11 cards are held in players' hands.   2. Player to the left of the dealer is first to play. With the dual objectives of getting rid of both cards and points, the player creates the Pile by placing up to four cards of the same number (suit is irrelevant) face-up in the center of the table. Cards may be played from the player's hand, or the 4 face-up cards covering the Mystery Cards. Any time the top four Pile cards* are of the same number a Swoop is achieved, and the Pile is removed from the table. Player continues until he/she plays less than four cards of the same number, at which time play passes to the left.   3. Subsequent players play cards according to the following options: - Cards of the same number that are equal to or less than the number of the top Pile card. Any time the last four cards* on the Pile are of the same number, a Swoop is achieved, the Pile is removed, and the player takes another turn. - Cards of the same number that are greater than the number of the top Pile card. Player must take and add the Pile to his/her hand at the time the higher card is played. Player may then play additional cards* of the same number from his/her hand, including those from the Pile. If four cards* of the same number are played, a Swoop is achieved and the player takes another turn. - A Swoop card (10 or Joker). The Pile, along with the Swoop card, are removed and the player takes another turn. Swoop cards can only be played at the start of a turn. - A face-down Mystery Card whose covering top card has already been played. Player may not look at the Mystery Card before playing it. If it is higher in number than the top Pile card, the Pile must be taken and added to the player's hand. Player may continue to play additional cards of the same number as the Mystery Card, up to four cards* which achieve a Swoop. Mystery Cards can only be played at the start of a turn.   Winning the Hand: When a player plays his/her last card, the hand is over. Remaining players count the points of all unplayed cards, including any face-down Mystery cards. The deal passes to the next player on the left.   Winning the Game: The game is over when one or more players reach 300 points. Player with the lowest score is the winner. In the event of a tie, the rule is two-tie, all-tie, and a win is not awarded. *Rules Options (available in Settings) - Maximum of four cards allowed in a Swoop: Yes/No - Matching cards can be played after the Pile is taken: Yes/No ## Swoop Card Game Screenshots - [Screenshot 1](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/d1/70/42/d17042c1-1de0-7455-8a8c-ce778b6e688d/Simulator_Screenshot_-_iPhone_17_Pro_Max_-_2025-11-11_at_11.08.25.png/1320x2868.png) ## Swoop Card Game Rating Breakdown in United States - 5 stars: 14 (38%) - 4 stars: 5 (14%) - 3 stars: 3 (8%) - 2 stars: 7 (19%) - 1 stars: 8 (22%) ## Swoop Card Game Reviews in United States ### **--- "AI wins" Seems so rigged against the human player. Not fun at times -- Graaanie, 2026-02-25 ### ***** "Best game ever" I play this game when I’m in work meetings. Highly recommend. My fiancé is impressed by how much I play this game. -- Brandon Towner, 2026-02-21 ### **--- "Fun but not fair" The rules are somewhat different than what I learned, but the main difference is that the competition in this game knows what their mystery cards are, but you don’t. -- SharonBR, 2026-01-21 ### ***** "Fun" I have really enjoyed this. I find it is quite easy to win once you get the strategy, however, I do get challenged. I’ve noticed recently that if a complete game isn’t finished when I close my iPad, it may reset that game to zero. Thanks for not having ads. I’m looking forward to being able to play this on a long flight. -- JoHoMay, 2026-01-19 ### ****- "Love the game, cards are too small." I love playing the game you created, but my eyes get strained because the cards are too small. I’d give this a five star review if you could make them bigger. -- vquare, 2026-01-16 ### ****- "Good game" Game is very fun but feels like each round is rigged against the player. I played to 300 and only won one single round played. Would be more fun if odds were better for the player. Still super fun though. -- Axacez, 2025-12-29 ### *---- "Rotation is not working" I play this game with friends almost daily, and I am disappointed at your version. A simple fix would make the game more enjoyable to people with older I phones. Just rotate the format so that the player can see all of their cards. How hard can it be. I wish someone would make a swoop card game that doesn’t make the player automatically lose. -- Djorgartist !, 2025-12-01 ### ***** "Love Swoop, but please add one more game option!" We play Swoop all the time and love this game. So happy there is now an app. One game option we always play that I found in a google search for Swoop rules is… “When playing a face up card, the same player may then play the Mystery Card beneath it, risking that the Mystery Card is the same or lower value as the face up card played. The same player may then play an additional Mystery Card, which has been previously uncovered, again risking that it may be the same or lower value as what is showing on the pile.” EXAMPLE: a face-up King is played, player then plays the card be beneath confident that the Mystery Card will be no greater than a King. Should the Mystery Card be a Queen, again it is a low risk move to play another uncovered Mystery Card to the pile. If the follow-on Mystery Card should be a higher value, player takes the pile. If a player uses a Mystery Card to start, he may also play any matching cards from his hand.” Would love if this could be added to the app as a game option. Thank you! -- Tracy Liguori, 2025-11-21 ### **--- "Moderately fun" Every game is rigged against the player. -- Cobra-17, 2025-10-15 ### ****- "Absolutely wonderful" If the creator is seeing this, you’ve outdone yourself. I love playing this game with my girlfriend’s family on holiday. 2 things. Make it multiplayer please. We all live in different states and would love to play with them as well. Also would it be possible to change the rule about players not being able to play a face down card after initially playing their first card. My family does this and it is tons of fun. Again. Great work!!! -- JJandKai, 2025-08-24 [View all Swoop Card Game reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Swoop Card Game Available In - [United States](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/united-states) - [Canada](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/canada) - [Belgium](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/belgium) - [Botswana](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/botswana) - [Czechia](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/czechia) - [Denmark](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/denmark) - [Dominican Republic](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/dominican-republic) - [Ecuador](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/ecuador) - [Spain](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/spain) - [France](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/france) - [Hong Kong SAR China](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/hong-kong) - [Honduras](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/honduras) - [Hungary](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/hungary) - [Kenya](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/kenya) - [Lebanon](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/lebanon) - [Mexico](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/mexico) - [Peru](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/peru) - [Philippines](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/philippines) - [Romania](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/romania) - [Sweden](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/sweden) - [Türkiye](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/turkey) - [Argentina](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/argentina) - [South Africa](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/south-africa) - [Austria](https://apptail.io/app/swoop-card-game-Wrdw/austria) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
