Call Yaniv. Dodge the ASAF. Play a full campaign or take on the world in realtime multiplayer — in the deepest, most customisable Yaniv card game on mobile.
Yaniv (also known as Jhyap or Dhumbal) is the lightning-fast card game that's ruled living rooms, hostels and army bunks for decades. It sits closer to Gin Rummy than to classic Rummy: your melds never leave your hand, and calling Yaniv when you're low is a gamble — if someone holds less, they ASAF you and you take the penalty. Learn it in five minutes, play it for years.
CAMPAIGN MODE
Travel a map of handcrafted levels across a series of worlds. Every level sets its own challenge — win before a deadline, survive a knockout, beat the clock — and every level has three stars to earn. Clear a world's boss to unlock the next. Pick the bot difficulty that suits you. The whole campaign plays offline, so you can keep going without a connection.
REALTIME PvP
Play live against up to three opponents. Jump into a quick match or spin up a private table and share an invite code. Add friends, send gifts and challenge them head-to-head.
MORE WAYS TO PLAY
Classic Yaniv, plus Chess Timer (spend your thinking-time budget wisely), Sudden Death (win the round or you're out) and Survival (a round-by-round knockout).
POWERUPS
Five powerups turn up exactly when they're useful: Peek, Scout, Mulligan, Insurance and Extra Time. Spend Gems to turn a losing hand around.
DAILY CHALLENGES
Eight fresh challenges every day across four difficulty tiers, plus a 7-day login streak. Coins, gems and shop items to claim.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND LEADERBOARDS
33 Game Center achievements to unlock. Daily, weekly, monthly and all-time rankings track coins, wins and win rate.
CLIPS
The game records your best moments as you play. Replay them in the clip studio and share the video with anyone.
DEEP PLAYER STATS
A full profile tracks every game: Yanivs called, ASAFs caused and dodged, rounds survived, slamdowns landed. Watch your skill curve climb.
YOUR RULES, YOUR GAME
Dial in the Yaniv that suits your table — Slamdown speed, Yaniv-call threshold, ASAF penalty, cards dealt, elimination score and more. Perfect for purists and house-rule fans alike.
