There are many variations of the game of Pitty Pat, this is one variation.
The game begins with each player being dealt 5 cards. The rest of the card deck is placed in the center of the screen with one additional card dealt face up in a separate heap deck.
The goal of Pitty Pat is to be the first to discard all of the cards in your hand. You accomplish this by matching the cards in your hand with the top card of the heap.
When its your turn, if you have a card in your hand that matches the top card of the heap, you can discard that card and a second card. The second card will then become the new top card of the heap deck.
If, however, you do not have a card in your hand that matches the heap card, you will need to click on the ‘deck’ to choose a card from it. The deck card now becomes the top heap card. If you have a card that matches this card, you can discard that card plus a second card. If you do not have a matching card, click on the ‘Pass’ button and the next player will take their turn.
Players with two matching cards in their hand, for example – two Aces, or two Kings, automatically win after they discard all non-matching cards in their hand.
Pitty Pat is a betting game in which each player starts with a certain dollar amount of betting money. At the left corner of the screen, the amount of the bet for each game is displayed. This value can be increased or decreased as the game progresses.
The game is over when one or more player runs out of money, making the winner the player with the most money.

Another thing that really makes Pitty Pat enjoyable for me is how it manages to stay interesting even after playing it multiple times. Many games feel repetitive after a while, but here, the experience still feels fresh because of the small details and different ways you can approach the gameplay. As you continue playing, you naturally start improving and understanding the mechanics better, which makes everything feel more rewarding. I also appreciate the balance the game maintains—it’s not too difficult, but it’s not too easy either. You can play it casually for a short break or spend longer sessions without getting bored. That flexibility is one of the biggest reasons why I keep coming back to Pitty Pat. Overall, it’s the kind of game that doesn’t just entertain you for a moment, but actually gives you a consistently enjoyable experience every time you play.
