About WHOT The Ultimate Nigerian Card Game

WHOT is a classic West African shedding card game, played here against AI or in real-time multiplayer. Each player starts with six cards and one is turned face up. On your turn you play a card matching either the shape of the top card — circle, triangle, cross, square or star — or its number. If you cannot play, you draw. First to empty their hand wins.

How to Play

Each player starts with six cards, with one placed face-up as the starting card. On your turn, play a card matching either the shape of the top card — circle, triangle, cross, square or star — or its number. If you cannot play, draw one card from the pile. Be first to empty your hand.

Tips & Tricks

Track which shapes your opponent keeps drawing for; a player repeatedly drawing on stars tells you which shape to play when you want them stuck. Hold a card matching a common shape rather than playing it early — flexibility late in a hand is worth more than shedding a card as soon as it is legal.
