Progressive Gin: Rummy Cards

Play it your way — the table's yours to set now, and it's cozier than ever. Your house, your rules. Every family plays Progressive Rummy a little differently, so now you can too. Pick a table to start — The Aunties' House, High Roller, Easy Chair, or Sharp Table — then tune it to taste: how much jokers and aces sting when you're caught with them, and how many times you can buy the pile each deal. The title screen always shows which table you're playing. Four new felts. Pull your chair up to Amethyst, Slate, Evergreen, or a warm Sunset table — nine felts in all now, from the lamplit Card Room to a seaside porch at dusk. Match the time of day. An optional new touch warms the felt at dusk and cools it at dawn, so the room follows your evening. Card backs to choose from. Deal with the classic lattice, or switch to grid, dots, pinstripe, or a clean plain back — in whatever felt you're playing. A woven table. Turn on the new felt texture for a soft baize weave and a little extra warmth. Rose settles in. She blinks and glances about between hands now — and if you give her a tap, she'll perk right up. (All of it respects Reduce Motion.) Easier to reach. Fixed the settings button so it's simple to tap on every iPhone, older ones included. Same promise as always: offline, no ads, no in-app purchases, no tracking. Just good cards.

Progressive Gin 1.2 — the cozy update. The table got warmer, smarter, and a lot more alive. MEET THE REGULARS Frank, June, Artie, Pearl, Walt, and Hazel now sit at the table in person — six hand-drawn characters in Rose's style, each with their own look. They blink, they look proud when they go down, and whoever's thinking leans gently over their cards. Prefer the classic lettered chips? Toggle portraits off in Settings. A LIVELIER, TIDIER TABLE Your cards are dealt into your hand one by one each round, results drift in softly, and Rose winks hello on the title screen (give her a tap). Tuck the opponent seats into slim chips with the little chevron, or hide them entirely in Settings for a clear table. UNDO Slipped a finger? Take back your last draw, discard, lay-off, or go-down — right up until another player acts. Buys reveal hidden cards, so those stay final, just like at a real table. YOUR TABLE RECORD Rose now keeps score for good: games played, wins, win rate, best score, and streaks — all on-device, under "Your stats." Set a new personal best and the results card quietly says so. MAKE IT YOURS Tell Rose your name and the whole table uses it. Set the pace of play (Relaxed, Normal, or Snappy). Turn on confirm-tap discards for slippery thumbs. And pull your chair up to two new tables: the Autumn Cabin, or the Seaside porch at dusk — five themes in all. ALSO IN THIS UPDATE Suits now alternate colors in your hand so hearts and diamonds never blur together, melds no longer overlap in late rounds, starting a new game warns you before discarding a saved one — and the game now runs on iOS 17, so older iPhones and iPads are welcome at the table. Same promise as always: offline, no ads, no in-app purchases, no tracking. Just good cards.

# Progressive Gin 1.1 — What's New Progressive Gin 1.1 — a big polish pass to make the table feel warmer and play smoother. **What's new:** - **A fresh look.** Brand-new app icon and a more crafted table, with Rose there to deal you in. - **Pick your table.** Three handsome themes — Card Room, Midnight, and Rosewood. - **Sound & haptics.** Gentle card slides, chimes, and taps — fully toggleable. - **Save & resume.** Get interrupted? Your game comes back exactly where you left it. - **Choose your challenge.** Three opponent levels — Relaxed, Classic, and Pro. - **Sharper opponents.** They now buy to stay in the race through the bigger late rounds, and they hold onto and build their sets instead of handing them away — a smarter, more satisfying game at every level. - **Going out, the way it's played at the table.** You finish by laying your last card onto a meld — never on a discard — just like around the family kitchen table. And you'll never get stuck holding a card that fits nowhere: keep what plays, toss what doesn't, and go out clean. - **Share your win.** A beautiful end-of-game results card to send to friends. - **New here?** A short, skippable tutorial gets you playing in seconds — replay it anytime from "How to play." - **Play at your pace.** An adjustable buy window so you're never rushed. - **Clearer guidance.** Friendlier on-screen hints and an updated rules card walk you through going down, laying off, and going out. - **Smoother play.** Fixed card selection after going down, steadier buying and lay-offs, and dozens of small refinements throughout.
