Choose how to play
Play Online seats you with players worldwide. Create Room makes a private table for friends. Play Offline is you against the computer, free and instant.
Match the top card
Play a card of the same colour or number, or a wild card to change the colour. Tap a card to play it; tap the deck to draw.
Call SOLO
Down to your last 2 cards? Tap CALL SOLO before you play. Forget, and anyone can catch you for 2 extra cards.
Empty your hand
The first player with no cards wins the round and scores the cards everyone else is holding.
At the table
A turn timer
Each turn has a short timer. If it runs out, the computer plays for you, so games keep moving.
Voice chat
Hear the table with one tap and turn your mic on when you want to talk. Mute anyone just for you.
Quick chat and gifts
Send a quick message, or tap a player's picture to throw a rose, a tomato or a crown.
Coins, levels and rewards
New players start with 1,000 coins. Online tables have an entry fee, and the winner takes the pot. Offline games against the computer are always free.
Log in every day for your login streak: coins every day and a bigger bonus on day 7. Every new level and every full week also earns a mystery box with coins, free gifts or a double-XP boost.
Questions players ask
Is Zero Mercy hard to learn?
No. If you can match a colour or a number you can play. The first few rounds teach you the action cards, and Play Offline lets you practise against the computer for free.
What is CALL SOLO?
When you are down to your last 2 cards, tap CALL SOLO before you play. If another player catches you with one card and no call, you draw 2.
How many players can play?
From 2 up to 10 players at one table. Play Online matches tables of 4 to 10.
Can I play against the computer?
Yes. Play Offline puts you at a table with computer players. It is free and works without other players.
Does it cost money?
No. The game is free. Online tables use coins, and you get free coins when you start, every day you log in and from mystery boxes.
