Activities Include
Modes of Play
Freeplay
The objective of Freeplay is to use the 52 cards in each round to make handsthat amount to the highest possible score. A round is finished once all 52 cardshave fallen. At the end of a round the cards remaining on the playing area thatwere not used to make hands are subtracted from you score the cards arereshuffled and you advance to the next round. The speed at which the cards dropincreases each round you advance to.
Survival
The objective of Survival mode is to continuously create hands that not onlyaward points but also affect the speed of the game. In Survival mode each cardthat falls drops faster than the last card that fell. Creating hands slows downthe speed at which the cards fall. The higher the value of the hand you createthe more it decreases the speed that the cards are falling. Unlike Freeplaymode the cards that left on the playing area once all 52 cards have fallen staythere while the rest of the deck is reshuffled and then redropped.
Challenge
The objective of Challenge mode is to create specific hands. At thebeginning of each round you are given a list of hands that need to be completedin order to advance to the next round. As soon as the objective for that roundhas been completed the round ends and you advance to the next level.
