Yaniv Free Game

About Yaniv

Possibly the most compelling and addictive card game ever invented. Based on the Israeli travelling game, Yaniv. Play against 1-3 computer-controlled players as you try to keep your score below 200 and stay in the game.

A game of skill and chance. Try to get the value of the cards in your hand down to fewer than 5 points and then call "Yaniv!" but woe betide you if one of the other players has the same or fewer points than you and calls "Assaf!"

There is a tutorial mode and the full rules can be found in the Help screen: any issues found or suggestions for improvement are welcome.

It is impossible to win on this game ever. also whenever I play it seem my opponent always gets an ace in their hand. I love yaniv and all, but this is just bad

C70%
by C####:

I can't resume or start a new game without it force closing. Super annoying, because it is a very fun game. Iphone has a much better version.

I love this game. I play on weekends with friends and during the week on this app. But for some reason whenever I am beating the computer by over 100 points and it's about to lose, it seems like the game is cheating (as weird as that sounds). Right before it's about to lose it will get dealt a win in the first hand or have five cards left that just so happen to be two joker's, two aces and a 2. Now that wouldn't be such a big deal if it happened evey now and then but it is almost every single game I play.

ios version which has real multiplayer is killin this one,you actually have to pay attn for this one and still be quite puzzled. With ios you can at least see the cards they pick up which you can strategize on. Good bathroom waster.

אם יש אופציה לעברית למה אין עברית? הגרפיקה ברמה נמוכה מאוד והתיאור של הפעולות שקורות על השולחן בכתב מאוד קטן ובמיקום נידח

When I try to drop card to go along with what other players drop, for instance if a pair of j's are dropped, it won't let me drop my j on top of it. Especially when it's my turn. It only works some of the tile and it messes me up.

The graphics are lackluster, but the user interface is fine and it's definitely playable! Very fun way to pass the time.

Game was crap before uninstall and still is. No one makes a GOOD yaniv game for android or apple.

E70%
by E####:

This is a great game. And with the new tutorial I am now playing it correctly (even though I was mostly winning by not knowing about slapping the same card drawn down quickly)! Would be nice to see % of wins in the global ratings. :)

K70%
by K####:

Hard to enjoy a game when the odds of winning are statistically improbable, except for the dealer. Amazing to see how many pairs and/or jokers the latter gets in opening hands.

Very good and comfertable

A70%
by A####:

I got rid of all my cards by having one card left then placing it on the pile then picked up the same card and quickly putting it down as well leaving me with no cards left... then a box pops up stating that "YANIV HAS STOPPED WORKING" ... I tried going back into the app a few times and the same error pops up. HOW STUPID!! (I even took screen shots of both screens for proof!)

R70%
by R####:

The AI is either really bad or cheating (or both) to beat me. Not sure which. I would never pass an Ace to the next player to pickup a face up 8 of Clubs with only one card in my hand. I would yell Yaniv instead.

R70%
by R####:

Fun game. Wish they'd let you "jump in" out of turn with 2 or 4 of a kind like some house rules I know of though.

O70%
by O####:

A bug in calculating the score with 3 players, after the first CPU player is out the scores are not calculated right, When the second is out its good. at the beginning of the game against one player the first play is wrong. Other then that, I noticed each round I get a 'right way' to win, if I am not following that path I lose..simply to say the game is poorly though through.

This is a relatively simple card game which has loads of mileage. Quick to pick up but by no means easy to master, I've been playing it with real cards with friends and everyone loves it. The actual graphics are a little too simple (different background, and decks would be nice) but it plays smoothly, Sometimes seems to stack the odds a little too much in the AI's favour but it doesn't feel blatant! All-in-all well worth downloading.
