Game Night | tentenbits.com

The Game Night shelf with two games, Get Seven in green and gold and Get Seven But Meaner in wine red, each showing its players, a race to 200, and Play and Setup buttons — Two games on the shelf, one tap from Play.

Get Seven's setup: you and three Human-ish bots, Walt the stubborn one, June the steady one and Dave the cautious one, with Add a person and a race to 200 or 100 — Pick your bots, each with a personality.

A Get Seven table where you've turned up a Freeze card, with buttons below asking who gets frozen: yourself, banking 35, or Marco, banking 10 — Turn up a Freeze, and pick who gets frozen.

A Get Seven But Meaner table where you've got seven, with a choice of +15 for yourself or 15 off Dave, Yolanda or Priya — In Meaner, a Get Seven can take 15 off someone.

The end of a Brutal Mode round: you got seven for 36, Dave stayed on 22, Priya stayed on 19, and Yolanda busted and was knifed down to -21 — Every round ends on who scored what.

The game-over screen: You win with 212, ahead of Priya, Dave and Yolanda, with awards for Comeback, Blown Lead, Big Round and Got Seven — Game over tells the story in awards.

The score race: a line for each player across nine rounds with the big moments pinned on it, and each player's busts, times hit and best round below — Swipe for the score race, round by round.

Game Night is a shelf of card games for iPhone, made for the nights when everyone’s around the table, or when you’d like a game and nobody is. It starts with two push-your-luck games: Get Seven and Get Seven But Meaner. Play against bots with personalities, pass the phone around the table, or open an online table where friends each play on their own iPhone.

Game Night is in TestFlight beta. To try it, join the beta on TestFlight.

How it plays

Get Seven. On your turn, take another card or stay. Each number you add counts toward the round, but turn up a number you already have and you bust, scoring nothing. Get seven different numbers and you score a 15-point bonus and end the round for everyone. Action cards shake things up: a Freeze makes a player bank what they have, Flip Three makes them take three cards in a row, and a Second Chance saves you from one bust. The first player to reach the target wins.

Get Seven But Meaner. The same race, with nothing safe. Minus cards and a halving card can land on other players, Steal, Swap and Discard move cards between hands, and an Unlucky 7 or a Flip Four can wreck a good round. Brutal Mode lets scores drop below zero and lets a Get Seven take 15 points off someone else instead of adding them to your own.

Bots. Twenty-one bots in three levels. Easy bots make plenty of mistakes, Human-ish ones play like people, each in their own style, and Sharp ones play the odds. Bots see only what you see on the table.

Pass the phone. Add friends as guests with a name and an emoji, and Game Night hands the phone to whoever’s turn it is.

Online tables. Host a Get Seven table, invite friends with a link, and each of them plays on their own iPhone. Bots can fill the empty seats, and if someone drops out, a bot plays for them until they’re back. Online play needs each person to be signed in to iCloud. Get Seven But Meaner isn’t online yet.

Game over. Each game ends with awards such as Comeback, Blown Lead and Big Round, then a score race that shows every player’s line, round by round. Play again starts a new game at the same table.
