How to play Fivefold

  1. Play a card, then choose its matching empty space. Cards refill automatically. Corners belong to everyone. Two players or two teams need two lines; three players need one. Five players is not a supported team arrangement.
  2. Club and diamond jacks place a chip on any empty space. Heart and spade jacks remove an opposing chip, unless it belongs to a completed line. A new line may share at most one chip with each earlier line.
  3. Once per turn, exchange a non-jack whose matching spaces are occupied. If no card can be used after the exchange, pass. If every player passes without a placement or removal, the teams with the most completed lines share the win. Team seats alternate; do not reveal your private cards.

Tips for your first game

Keep your private cards to yourself. Select cards in the order you want to group them. Check the highlighted choices before confirming a move.

What to know before you start

An independent Boardroom edition with original artwork and rules wording. Similar to Sequence; not an official edition or affiliated with its publisher. Play with real friends; practice bots are not available. Replay or switch games without leaving the room and voice. Closing the tab preserves your seat; explicitly leaving closes the match.

Create a room, share the invitation and wait for your guests. They only need a display name to join. Public waiting rooms may appear in the game's room directory; Draw & Guess and Word Impostor are invite-only by default unless the host enables listing.

Can I play Fivefold with friends on my phone?

Yes. Share your room code, let everyone ready up, and start. The board, hand and social tabs fit the screen. Cards stay private, and voice chat is optional.

Do I need an app or an account?

No. Open the room link in a modern browser on your phone or computer. The games are free to play without sign-up. Optional voice chat asks for microphone permission; you can keep playing without joining voice.
