About Kitchen Table Classics
Kitchen Table Classics makes the classic games people play around the kitchen table: dominoes, card games, solitaire and puzzles. Every game is free and runs right in your web browser on a computer, tablet or phone.
Why We Made It
Most people who play card and domino games online play alone, against the computer, for twenty minutes to an hour at a time. Many of them are over fifty, and many of them told surveys the same things: the text is too small, the instructions are confusing, the ads get in the way, and the computer players seem to cheat. We set out to fix those four things and nothing fancier.
Our Four Promises
- Ads never cover the game. No pop-ups, no video, no ads between rounds, and no paying to remove ads.
- Big and easy to read. Large text and pieces, high contrast, big buttons with words on them.
- No sign-up. No email, no password. Your games are saved on your own device.
- Fair computer players. They never see your cards, they explain their moves, and you can check every deal.
Read the details of our promises.
How the Games Are Made
- Each game follows the standard published rules, and the House Rules settings cover the common ways families play differently. Each game's "Rule Variations" page explains every option.
- Shuffles use your browser's built-in random number source. Every deal has a number, so the same number always gives the same deal.
- The rules, strategy guides and pictures on this site are written and made by us.
