Canasta Free is one of the most popular mobile card games also knows as Canastra, Canaste and Hand and Foot. It is the most traditional and loved game by all ages. It is an exciting mix of strategy, luck and skill game.

Canasta Card Game for two players is the same as four-handed Canastra, in a two player game, each player plays for himself.

Canasta Free is generally agreed to be best for four players, playing in partnerships. It is normally played with two standard 52 card packs plus four jokers (two from each pack), making 108 cards in all.

Each player is dealt a hand of cards, and in the center of the table is a face-down pile of cards called the stock and a face-up pile of cards called the discard pile. The player to the left of the dealer plays first and then the turn to play passes clockwise.

A basic turn consists of drawing the top card of the stock, adding it to your hand without showing it to the other players, and discarding one card from your hand face up on top of the discard pile.

The aim is to meld down combinations of cards of equal rank. A combination of seven or more cards is called a Canasta. Jokers and twos are wild cards.

Canasta Free Features:
- 2 players or 4 players card game.
- Clockwise or Counter-Clockwise.
- Realistic game play and graphics.
- Intuitive single player game play.
- Undo function so you can cancel mistaken melds.
- Learn how to play canasta turbo.

To play cards to the table in this way is known as melding, and the sets of cards so played are melds. These melded cards remain face up on the table until the end of the play.You are permitted to take the whole of the discard pile. In order to do this, you must be able to meld the top discard, without needing any of the other cards in the discard pile to make your meld valid.

A player "goes out" when no cards are left after a meld or discard. A player is not permitted to go out, however, unless there's at least one canasta. In this game a meld comprising seven or more cards, including at least four natural cards (called a "base"), is a canasta.

Regardless of whether you’re a seasoned player or giving it a go for the first time, If you like card games, you’ll love Canasta Free! You can call it Canastra, Canaste and Hand and Foot.
