The goal of Straight Hand is simple: form a straight! However, it's not as easy as it looks. Any card you can't put in your straight must be placed in the "Off Hand". The challenge is that any card you place in the Off Hand cannot have the same suit or the same face as any card that's in your straight. If you can't place a card anywhere, you lose!

Sound easy enough? Give it a try!



About the game:

I first came up with the idea for Straight Hand in my Game Design class in high school. I knew I wanted to make a computer game, but I wasn't sure what to do. After staring at my computer screen for a while, I decided to stop thinking and to just improvise it! When my classmates would see me working and ask what my game would be about, I would tell them "I have no clue, I'm just making it up as I go!" After just a few days of designing the game layout, the idea of Straight Hand was born.

I first developed the game as a Windows application, which took me about a month of working on it in class to finish it. When I had finished, the game was an instant hit. For several weeks, many people in my Game Design class would crowd around my computer waiting for their turn to play this new card game. A few people suggested that I should make an app version, but I turned down the idea, saying "I have no clue how to develop phone apps, that would be way too hard."

However, I got into app development after all shortly after graduating. By this point, I had pretty much forgotten about Straight Hand. But one day I stumbled upon it on my computer and knew immediately that I had to turn this game into an app! Several weeks later, the game was fully functional on my phone. And now here are!

I hope you enjoy playing it as much as I enjoyed making it!
