A round green baize table under a warm lamp, every card dealt, flipped and gathered in front of you in crisp pixel-art. Zoom in on your hand or switch to an overhead view.
Mabel, Otis, Ines and the other regulars fill the seats. Choose Easy, Normal or Hard before each game - harder opponents pay double.
Never played Baccarat or Clock Patience? Each game explains how to play the first time, and the Rules button brings it back mid-game.
Win chips at the casino tables and as prize money in every other game. They can't be bought or cashed out, and the house tops you up free if you run dry.
Gain experience as you play and level up. Thirteen achievements to collect - shoot the moon at Hearts, beat Clock Patience - and a played-and-won record for every game.
A game of the day with double experience, three daily tasks the cashier deals onto the felt, and a visit bonus that grows over a week.
Spend your chips on new table felts, unlock new card backs as you level up, and set the sound and the pace of play to suit you.
No account, no adverts, nothing to buy. The whole card room runs on your own device, in the browser or the Windows app, and your progress stays there.
Most free card game apps pay for themselves with adverts, and casino-style apps sell chips for real money. Lamplight Card Room does neither.

No. Chips are for play only. You can't buy them, cash them out or exchange them for anything, and if you run low the house tops you up for free.
Fifteen: Rummy, Crazy Eights and Hearts; Blackjack, Texas Hold'em Poker, Baccarat and Higher or Lower at the casino tables; Go Fish, Liar's Deck, Old Maid, Snap, War and Memory for the family; and Solitaire and Clock Patience when it's just you.
The house regulars - computer players run by the game. Choose Easy, Normal or Hard before each game to set how strong they are.
No - play it straight from your browser, on a phone, tablet or PC, and add it to your home screen like an app. There is also a free Windows app in the Microsoft Store if you prefer an installed app.
No account, in either edition. The Windows app works fully offline. The browser edition needs a connection the first time it loads; after that the whole card room is stored on your device and works offline too.
Yes. The first time you sit down at each game it explains how to play, and the Rules button brings that back any time during a game.
On your own device. Your chips, level, trophies and record stay on the device you play on - the browser edition and the Windows app each keep their own - and you can erase them yourself from the Trophies screen.
Free in your browser or from the Microsoft Store. Play chips only, never real money. No account, no adverts.
