About this title

Pegwick is cribbage, the classic two-player card game, set in a woodland tavern. Lay two cards away to the crib, play to 31 while pegging fifteens, pairs and runs, then count your hand with the starter: fifteen two, fifteen four, and a pair is six. First peg to 121 wins.

  • Full cribbage rules: the crib, the starter and his heels, go and last card, flushes, his nobs, skunks and double skunks
  • A tavern ladder of six rivals, from the easy-going Mole to the sharp Old Owl, plus quick games to 121 or 61
  • Pass and play for two people on one screen, with hands hidden between turns
  • Every count is spelled out card by card while the pegs move along a real cribbage board
  • Hint button that shows what a sharp player would lay away or play, and a full How to play page
  • Mouse, touch, keyboard or controller; English and Bulgarian
  • Native builds for Windows (64-bit), Linux (64-bit) and Android (64-bit ARM); progress and settings are saved; no ads, no tracking, no internet needed.
