Thunee, named after the Tamil word for water, is a beloved trick-taking card game that originated in Durban, South Africa. Drawing its roots from the game 304, which is popular in India and Sri Lanka, Thunee offers an engaging gaming experience that can be enjoyed in both Single Player and Multiplayer modes. Whether playing solo or with friends, this app provides the ultimate Thunee gaming experience, simulating the real-life game seamlessly.
Note: For the best gaming experience and to upload or update scores (wins), an online connection is essential.
In Multiplayer mode, you have the option to invite someone to be your partner or challenge them to a game. Inviting others is made easy through push notifications or WhatsApp messages. The app keeps track of the results and statistics of games played with friends, displaying them on a dedicated statistics page, which is perfect for bragging about who's the top player in your circle.
For beginners, the Easy difficulty setting offers assistance and narration during gameplay, making it an ideal way to learn and master the game.
The app is highly customizable, allowing you to tailor the settings to match your preferred playing style. You can adjust various options, including:
- Difficulty Level: Choose between Hard, Medium, or Easy.
- Score Assistance: Enable score assistance for Medium and Easy levels, providing real-time trick/hand values and scores.
- Bidding Options: Decide when to be prompted to bid—either all the time or only when holding three or more cards of the same suit or J9.

- Vocal Sounds: Include sounds for bidding, calling Jodhi, and more.
- Game Appearance: Customize the background (or select your own color with a vignette effect) and choose different card packs.
