Description

Palace was the most popular study hall / cafeteria card game in my high school growing up in the 90's. According to Wikipedia it's also popular amongst backpackers, and as a result is widespread.

** Added new options per user requests (pickup pile any time and 7 forces lower).
** Added ability to play against friends

Play against eight different computer characters, each with slightly different playing styles or play live against your friends.

Basic Rules:

Each player is dealt 3 'face down cards'. You are not allowed to see or change these until the end of the game. Next, 3 'face up cards' are placed on top. Finally, each player is dealt 3 cards to form their hand. If you wish, you can switch cards from your 'hand' with your 'face up cards'.";

Whoever has a 3 or the next lowest card starts the game.

Each turn you must discard a card (or two or more cards of the same) greater than or equal to the one at the top of the pick up pile, then draw cards from the deck so you have at least 3 cards in your hand (unless the deck has run out of cards or you already have 3 or more cards in you hand).

2's and 10's are wild cards. 2's resets the pile and 10's clear the pile. 4 of a kind, like a 10, clears the pile.

If don't have a card that is greater than or equal to the card on top of the pile or a wild card, you must pick up the entire pile.

When there are no more cards in your hand, and the deck is empty, proceed to play your face up cards. Once all of the face up cards have been played, play the face down cards.

If you are the first to get rid of all your cards you win.

Palace is sometimes also known as Shed, Karma or "OG"

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★First time I ever rated a game. I'm 21 been using android phones for years.BEST GAME EVER!
1 ★Worst palace game ever
5 ★Great game, very basic but great fun
1 ★Bad
1 ★boring
4 ★great
5 ★love it
3 ★Hard time selecting multiple cards. Sometimes you can click on two, sometimes the second click just places the one card, which drives me nuts. Other than that, love it!
3 ★I find it oddly suspicious how I can beat everyone else in the game except for Joshua and I'm guessing that the person who made this is named Joshua because it's from Josh'sgames. Just sayin'. Let me know.
1 ★Can't play multiple cards at turn, 7 card not a special card, takes to long to get a match in multiplayer. Needs a lot of work.
1 ★This isn't dag. At least not how we play it in Oregon. We call it dag I can't find it under that name. Less than 9 on 9s... 8 skips and u have to beat it. 10 only clears if its lesser value. 2s beat anything and 4 of a kinda blow up the pile only of its beating the card at play. Also you can throw down matching cards as you draw them if you're fast enough in my rules.
2 ★Unfortunately probably the best rendition of palace available, but if you're trying to select multiple cards it's a crapshoot whether you select them or accidentally play them before selecting all like cards. Would be remedied by only playing cards when you click the discard pile. Maybe it's different with a stylus or different devices, idk. Also, in the variation I learned to play on you can pick up the pile of cards whenever you choose, which makes the game more strategic.
