Gameplay Mechanics

Tongits Offline boasts simple yet challenging rules. Here's a concise overview:

**The Deck:** A standard 52-card deck is used.

**The Objective:**  Form combinations of sets and runs (like three-of-a-kind or sequences of three or more consecutive cards of the same suit) to minimize your hand's point total. The lowest score wins.

**Turns:** Each turn involves:

1. Drawing a card from the main pile or the discard pile.
2. Discarding a card to the pile.
3. Forming sets or runs to reduce your points.

**Game Conclusion:** The game concludes in two ways:

1. **Tongits:**  A player immediately wins by forming valid sets/runs and discarding all their cards.
2. **Draw:** If all players agree no one can win, the game ends in a draw.

Getting Started

**1. Game Initiation:** Launch Tongits Offline, select your preferred difficulty (Easy, Medium, or Hard), choose the number of players (typically 2 or 3), and begin!

**2. Gameplay Flow:**

* Draw a card from either pile on your turn.
* Create valid sets (three-of-a-kind) or runs (consecutive cards of the same suit).
* Discard a card after each turn.

**3. Victory Condition:**  Minimize your card points by forming sets and runs. The game ends when a player achieves "Tongits" (discards all cards) or when all players pass consecutively, resulting in a draw.

**4. Point Management:**  The key is not just playing correctly but minimizing your total points. Fewer cards held equals a better score!

Strategic Tips

**Strategic Planning:** Think ahead!  Identify opportunities to create sets and runs early, discarding high-value cards (face cards) promptly.

**Efficient Discarding:** Discard strategically. Avoid discarding cards useful for sets or runs, or cards your opponents might utilize.

**Opponent Observation:** Observe your opponents' discards and draws. This provides clues to their strategies, aiding your decision-making.

**Hand Balance:** Maintain a balanced hand. Avoid accumulating single cards or isolated high cards. A balanced hand facilitates set and run formation.
