Open Face Chinese Poker is a popular side game that professional and amateur poker players are playing at the poker tables. It is a variation of Chinese Poker also known as Pusoy. Each player will get a total of 13 cards in which they need to set into three poker hands. The bottom hand has to beat the middle hand which has to beat the top hand, otherwise you misset, and do not get any points. Your goal is to not misset, while beating each of your opponents hands. Extra royalty and bonus points are given for big hands, and winning all three hands.
Pineapple is a variation of OFC where you get dealt five cards in the first round, and then three cards in each following round where you set two of the cards and discard the third one.
This app also has the ability to add a joker to the deck that acts as a wild card. Place the joker when it is dealt to you, and then at the end of the round choose what card you would like your joker to be.
This game is for people 13 years and older.

Great app - have been playing against friends for years
This is a great app, a great game, and has great developers and very responsive support. I use the 'in-game texting function to communicate with Laura, the main software engineer and she responds very quickly. The only things I might change are all 'interface and aesthetics' and more "I'd like it if..." stuff, but what 'I lik isn't' necessarily 'better'. This is an addictive game with great options, and great support. What more could anyone ask?
Low user count, no bot to play, wanted to request a refund but it's been over 48 hours. Way better options than this app.
Hate the colour scheme, but everything else is great! New "tip" popup seems crass
Was fine and fine but developers got greedy and now charge more for what was originally included in original charge. Won't "upgrade"
The app is terrible
It really gains nothing by hiding the Android notification bar, but that makes it so annoying to check incoming notifications while playing. I really wish that the dev would unhide the notification bar and not break Android's multitasking work flows without a valid reason.
Very gcse layout. Missed is spelt wrong which is shocking. I can only have 2 matches going at any 1 time and that's with the same person. Need to have some sort of timer to increase speed
The app keeps refreshing every 30 seconds or so so you can't see your opponent's hand instantly. It sometimes crashes for no reason. Other than that it's super fun! Love the pineapple option
This is the greatest OFC app available. I have had no problems with this app, and the creator is a wonderful helpful person.
My main con is that it hides my notifications bar. I see someone else wrote that too. Other than that, the 30 second refresher is annoying sometimes, but bearable. Overall, great app... Is there any way to remove old games from the game listing screen??
Scrolling ability to next game without refreshing and it's a 5!
Better graphics ..not sure why others don't use it
Great app. Speedy and reliable.
The game has so many bugs. Half the time it doesn't tell me it's my turn the other half the app won't open.
Hate the new lay out. If its not broken dont fix it
The developer is always working on making changes and improvements. Will take user feedback into consideration.
Had played earlier versions which were buggy, but developers really worked out the glitches. Game now is great and a blast to play.
All we need now is 3 handed pineapple
Best ofcp out there on android with regular updates and good communication from the Dev!
Fun and has no issues
Good graphics and a nice feature set.
This is the only OFC app I've found with pineapple which I can use to play my friend on iOS. All functionality works well and the app is fast and responsive. It's not the prettiest interface however it works well so hopefully the UI will get tidied up in a future update. Great work.
I've been using this app for close to a year now, and I've recruited quite a few friends to it as well. In general I like it much better than the other apps that I've tried,, though it's recently lost one of its major advantages. Pros: The display is easy to see and use; it works well on both phones and tablets. There are several variants available. You get notifications of your turn. The developer responds quickly. Cons: Often buggy or slow. Some workflows, such as the one for creating a game, are awkward. You get a list of past opponents in no particular order, and you have to scan to find someone. You can't create multiple games with someone without doing this once for every game. Even though you've bought the app you're limited in what you can do with it. I've been very loyal to this game since I started using it, but one of the reasons that I've recommended it over others is that the developer wasn't trying to nickel and dime me by asking me to fork over more money. all the time. Sadly that advantage is gone now.
It is a very good game. Easy to use but the game doesn't notify you often enough of your move. Please tweak that.
it keeps sgutting down saying runtime error0. good game when it runs
