Jokeri Online — Free Joker Online for Four Players

Jokeri online, jokeri onlain, jokris tamashi, joker online — people write Joker in Latin letters in many ways, and every version is looking for one game: Georgian Joker for four players, the way it is played at the table. On Tamashebi.cc it is played in the browser, for free, with khishti, premia and moshla, and the server keeps the score sheet. Below — how to sit down at a table right now and what to know before your first game.

What you find when you search for “jokeri online”

On the internet “joker” is often the name of quite different games, or of card games where the joker is simply an extra card. Georgian Joker is a game of its own: a 36-card deck with two jokers, a bid on every hand, points for an exact bid and khishti for a failed one. That is exactly what is played here, in two variants — the classic one for four and Japanese Joker for two.

How to play right now

Open the Joker page and choose a free table — standard or nines, free or with coins.
Or create your own table: you choose the khishti option (200, 500, Special or off) and send the link to three friends.
If you have no account, join as a guest — a name and an avatar are enough. Coin tables and rating need an account.
When all four seats are filled and everyone confirms they are ready, the deal starts by itself.

In Joker your opponents are living people — there is no practice bot here. A bot only steps in when a player’s move time runs out or they leave the table, so that the other three can carry on. If there are only two of you, try Japanese Joker.

Joker rules in brief

36 cards, from 6 to ace; instead of the two black sixes there are two jokers.
The standard game is 24 hands in four pulkas (from 1 to 8 cards, four nines, from 8 to 1, four nines); in nines it is 16 hands of nine cards.
In every hand you say how many tricks you will take. The last bidder may not bid so that the total equals the number of tricks.
You must follow suit; if you cannot — trump; if you have neither — any card. The joker is always legal: played high it takes, played low it gives way.
An exact bid scores (bid + 1) × 50, bidding and taking every trick scores bid × 100, a missed bid scores 10 for each trick taken.
Bidding one or more and taking none is khishti. At the end of a pulka, whoever made every hand exactly gets the premia.

Joker on a phone — tips

The table fits the screen, so Joker plays on a phone just as it does on a computer.
The last trick can always be viewed — all four cards, the order and who took it. If you missed something, you will find it there.
A Joker match is long, so a charged battery and a stable connection are a good idea.
If the connection drops, the state is on the server: when you come back you continue the same hand with the same cards.

Only two of you? Japanese Joker

Classic Joker needs exactly four. If there are only two of you, try Japanese Joker: the same deck, but without bidding. You hold eight cards, and on the table there are five columns, an open card on top of a closed one. At the end of 18 tricks the difference is scored, and the match goes to 21 points.

Tips for your first game

Bid carefully in the first hands: first get used to how many tricks your cards really bring.
The joker is the strongest card, but sometimes playing it low saves you from khishti.
Remember who bid what: the last bidder’s restriction often spoils somebody’s bid.
Keep an eye on the score sheet — a mistake by a player on course for the premia changes the whole pulka.

Money? No

Joker is free. Coin tables use Domino Coin — a virtual coin that cannot be bought, cannot be exchanged for money and means nothing outside the site. The server shuffles the cards from a cryptographic source of randomness, and your opponents’ cards are never sent to your browser.
