Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you might want to know about playing at the Cribbage Den.

How many players can play at the same time?

A game supports 2, 3, or 4 players. Two- and three-player games are every-player-for-themselves; a four-player game is played as two partnerships. Any open seat can be filled with a computer opponent, so you can play a full game even when you're the only person at the table.

Can people spectate a game?

Not yet. Everyone who joins a room takes a seat as a player, so there's currently no way to watch a game you're not playing in. Spectating is on our list of ideas for the future.

Do I need an account to play?

You need a free account (or Google Sign-In) to create or join multiplayer games and to have your statistics tracked. You can play against the computer as a guest without signing in — guest games are just for fun and are never recorded.

How are stats calculated?

Statistics are recorded on your account each time a game finishes (a player pegs out at 121). We track:

Games abandoned before anyone reaches 121 are not counted.

Do the stats include games against the computer?

Games with any computer player at the table do not count toward your ranked games played, games won, or leaderboard position. They're tracked separately as practice-mode stats on your profile, so you can still see how you fare against the AI. Guest games (playing the computer without signing in) aren't recorded at all.

How are users ranked?

Ranking is based on total multiplayer games won. Your rank is one plus the number of active players with strictly more wins than you, so players with the same number of wins share a rank. The leaderboard shows the top players by games won along with their games played.

Can I talk to the other players?

Yes — games support optional peer-to-peer video and voice chat. Streams travel directly between players' devices whenever possible and are never recorded or stored. See the Privacy Policy for details.

What can I play on?

The Cribbage Den runs in any modern web browser on desktop or mobile (you can install it to your home screen as an app), and there's a native iOS app. Players on different platforms can all sit at the same table.

How do I report a bug or suggest a feature?
