The game combines traditional player-vs-player card gameplay with engaging casual features such as a wheel, piggy bank, tasks, collections, tournaments, mini-games, avatars, and more.

The core gameplay is Gin Rummy matches. The player's goal in a Gin Rummy match is to create melds of RUN or SET.
Each turn, a player draws a card from the deck or picks the last discarded card, then discards one from their hand. When the sum of the deadwood cards (cards not part of a meld) is 10 or less, the player can KNOCK, aiming to have a lower deadwood value than their opponent. The player with the lowest deadwood value wins the round. If the player reaches a deadwood value of 0, they can declare GIN and win the round
