Tongits is the quintessential 3-player card game of the Philippines. Form valid melds (bahay), drop your cards strategically, avoid having the highest deadwood count, and declare 'Tongits' or win via 'Fight' and 'Chow' maneuvers.
Players start with 12 cards (dealer receives 13). Draw from the deck or chow from the discard pile to build 3-card melds.
The round concludes when a player melds all cards (Tongits), initiates a Fight when the deck is depleted, or has the lowest deadwood point sum when the draw pile empties.
Yes, our lobby matches you with real Filipino players in real-time multi-player rooms.
If you fail to place down at least one meld (bahay) before someone calls Tongits or Fight, you are burned and forfeit the round.
