Spoons is a fast-paced card swapping game where the goal is to collect four-of-a-kind. Once a player succeeds, everyone must grab a spoon from the center. There is always one less spoon than there are players, so someone will be left out! Lose enough rounds to spell the word 'S-P-O-O-N' and you're eliminated. The last player standing wins.

Our Expert Score
The digital version of Spoons captures the chaotic energy of the real-life card game surprisingly well. The core loop of quickly passing cards to find a four-of-a-kind is translated into a fast-paced 'card swapping' mechanic that keeps you on your toes. The 'twitch' element of grabbing a spoon once someone else has made a match is preserved here, leading to some tense moments against the AI or other players.
While visually simple, the game is polished and easy to pick up, making it a great choice for families. It’s a faithful recreation of a classic parlor game that works well on a mobile screen, though the thrill of physically lunging for a spoon is replaced by a quick tap.

Tips & Walkthrough
Keep your eyes on the spoons, not just your cards. As soon as you see a spoon disappear, tap the center immediately, even if you don't have a match yet!
Gameplays
The dealer takes a card from the deck and passes one to the left. Cards move quickly around the table. Your goal is to react fast and find a matching set of four.

Needs Changed
Sun Mar 04 2018 look 👀The computer is able to see your cards, so when you get four of a kind, the computer grabs a spoon before you can.
Can’t win
Wed Jan 05 2022 kyliemarmesYou have to pay money for this game and you can never win. The computer always takes a spoon before you can even take one because they can read your cards
Fun, some things could be better
Sun Jan 17 2016 Pug2971I wish that whoever won the hand (who got the 4 of a kind) shows their cards at the end. Because I have played for a while, and multiple times I hit the button for a new card, and I get the 4th card at the exact same time another player gets the spoon. I am 100% sure that I am the one that got the 4 of a kind (As I have pretty much never get the first spoon unless I have one thumb rapidly clicking the spoon, while the other is sorting the cards. This is the only way to really win btw), but still I lost because he got the spoon before me. A rule to implement needs to be you cannot pick up a spoon unless the person who got the four of a kind grabs the spoon.
Awful
Sat Jul 28 2018 Cross_Is_The_BossWhen I have “spoons” or 4 of a kind, computer is able to see that. They also don’t have to reveal there 4 cards. Lastly, I purposely passed cards around just so I could pick the object and computer still got it before me!!
Frustrating
Sat Jun 16 2018 rememberingmeadowEvery time you get 4, the computer takes a spoon before you do. Please fix this is my favorite card game😭
Don’t get this game
Fri Jan 12 2018 chnwnficnIt is a waste of money and I had a four of a kind and before I could even grab a spoon they were all gone.
GREAT GAME
Tue Aug 06 2024 jqafrteynmbvcxcvcThis is so fun it’s hard and I like it.
Fun, but can the CPU's see my cards?
Sun Feb 07 2016 Syrup678I love this game, but I am finding that every time I get a four of a kind, a CPU grabs a spoon before I can. I thought that this was just chance in the beginning, but I have been playing for nearly two weeks now and it happens every time without fail. It makes me wonder if the CPU's somehow know when I get four of a kind, and it ruins the game for me. Can this please be fixed?
