About Go Fish

Go Fish is the card game you know — “Got any sixes? Go fish!” — moved into a smoky back-room bar, at a table with critters who cheat, trash-talk and play for keeps. You sit one-on-one against a regular, collect books of four and put your own junk on the line: lose and it goes to the house, win and you take theirs. The higher your reputation, the meaner the faces at the table. An adults-only game, 18+.

FAQ

How do you play Go Fish?

Everyone holds a few cards; the rest is the pond. On your turn ask your opponent for a rank. If they have it, they hand over every card of that rank and you go again. If not — “go fish”: draw from the pond. Four of a kind is a book. Whoever has more books when the cards run out wins.

Who am I playing against?

The ten regulars of the bar. Each has a personality and a style: one remembers what you asked for, one bluffs, one just mouths off. The pig sits down first; reputation unlocks the rest.

How do stakes work?

Before a match you can put a trinket from your junk on the line. The house matches it with one of similar rarity. Win and you take both; lose and yours goes to the house. You can also play for nothing.

Why 18+?

It’s a bar: drinks on the counter, a cigarette in the ashtray, rude opponents and games played for real items. No place for kids.

Is the game free?

Yes. There are ads between matches; one purchase removes them for good.

Will my progress survive a phone change?

Progress lives on the game server. Link Game Center or Google Play Games and everything comes back on a new phone: reputation, opponents, your junk.

Where can I download it?

Google Play — “Go Fish! Card Game online”, App Store — “Go Fish Club”.

Where the data comes from

nakama-gofish

Tables, minimal data. Every game has its own Nakama instance with its own schema — the site has no shared data model and talks to the instance of whichever game hub is open. The BlitzPlay account and star balance live separately, in the platform database, and are the same for every game.
