New: made for iPhone Duo, on the cover screen or the open inner screen. Real cribbage across two phones, each player holding their own hand. Play nearby or online.
Pair for Two is cribbage the way it’s meant to be played — face to face, but on two phones. Each player holds their own hand on their own device, so nobody peeks. Deal, cut, peg, and count your way to 121.
MADE FOR IPHONE DUO
Play on the cover screen, or open it up and play on the inner screen, in landscape or held upright. The table lays itself out around the fold, so nothing you tap sits on the hinge, and the cards are sized to fill each screen.
TWO PHONES, ONE TABLE
Every player gets their own screen and their own private hand. Sit across from a friend and play a real game of cribbage — your cards stay yours.
PLAY NEARBY OR ONLINE
• Nearby: connect two phones directly over Bluetooth and peer-to-peer Wi-Fi. No internet, no accounts, no sign-in.
• Online: invite a friend through Game Center and play from anywhere.
JUST KEEPING SCORE?
Playing with real cards? Tap Scoreboard and lay the device between you. There's a slider at each end, so you add your own points, and the score in the middle turns to face whoever just pegged — readable from both sides of the table, on a phone or an iPad.
A REAL CUT FOR THE STARTER
Just like at the kitchen table: the non-dealer taps the deck to cut it, and the dealer turns up the starter card. Little rituals, done right.
SCORE YOUR WAY
Pick the style that fits your table:
• Automatic — the app counts and pegs every point for you.
• Player responsibility — no hints. Count it yourself, just like the real thing. This is how new games start.
You’re nudged when it matters — when a “Go” passes to you, or when someone hits 31 — so nobody misses a point.
YOUR RECORD
Every game is kept: wins, streaks, skunks, your best hand and time played. Game Center adds achievements — the perfect 29, a comeback from 30 behind, five in a row — and a lifetime wins leaderboard.
BUILT TO FEEL GREAT
• Rich haptics and sound for every card, cut, deal, and win.
• A proper skunk (and double-skunk!) celebration.
• Clean, legible cards that scale beautifully from iPhone to iPad.
• Landscape play designed for two people sitting across a table.
DROP-IN, DROP-OUT
Step away and come back — games reconnect quickly, and you can rejoin an interrupted match right where you left off.
Whether you’re teaching a beginner with automatic scoring or keeping it honest with manual counting, Pair for Two brings the classic two-hand game to the two phones already in your pockets.
Ratings & Reviews
This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• New: made for iPhone Duo. Pair for Two plays on both the cover screen and the open inner screen, in landscape or held upright, with the table laid out around the fold.
• Bigger cards: the cut for the deal and cutting the deck are much larger on iPhone, and on iPhone Duo the six cards you choose your crib from fill the screen.
• A brighter Scoreboard: player names and +1 buttons in vivid color, and on iPhone Duo the board spans the full width.
• Quitting a game always returns you to the menu, even if the connection has stalled.
