Getting comfortable with the controls
Tap an enabled card from your hand. The suit rows show cards already played. Use Pass only when it is enabled. Keep the goal in mind before your next move.
Follow the example
The board gives you the information needed for the next action. After 7♥ is opened, 6♥ or 8♥ can be played. 5♥ must wait until 6♥ is on the table. Start a new round when you are ready to try again.
Where a round can go wrong
A matching rank in another suit does not extend an existing row. Every suit has its own sequence.
