How to play
No accounts, no app store, no faff. Three steps and you're mid-game.
Head to playbeanie.com, create a room and send the 4-letter code to your friends. They join instantly — no sign-up required.
Form runs and three-of-a-kinds. Use the Beanie wild card as any card you like — and snatch it back from opponents when you hold the real thing.
Empty your hand first to score zero. Everyone else scores for cards left behind. The wild card rank changes each round — Aces first, all the way through to Kings in round 13.
Why Beanie
Small rules, big twists. Beanie is easy to learn and impossible to get bored of.
Round one the wild card is Aces. Round two it's 2s, all the way up to Kings in round 13. The same hand that wins one round can crumble the next — you can never get too comfortable.
Spot an opponent using a Beanie wild card as a stand-in in their set? If you hold the real card it's covering for, you can steal the Beanie right out of their set and take it into your own hand. Watch the table turn in an instant.
Beanie runs entirely in your browser. No app store, no download, no account. Tap the link on your phone, share the 4-letter room code, and you're playing in seconds — wherever you are.
Each round is short and punchy. One perfectly timed steal or a lucky draw can swing the whole leaderboard. Whether you're half a point up or trailing badly, you're always one round away from a comeback.
