Frequently asked questions
What is Tonj?
Tonj is the classic Arabic card game known worldwide as Crapette or Russian Bank — a 1v1 race between two mirrored camps. Our version is faster: turn timers, loading your rival, and the Tonj Call on missed mandatory moves.
Is Tonj online free?
Yes. It runs right in your browser with no download, and you can start as a guest instantly. Coins are virtual — they set the stakes of each table, and the winner takes the pot.
Can I play against the computer?
Yes — any private room can start with the bot, and if your rival disconnects, a bot plays their seat so the match never dies.
How do I win a Tonj match?
Empty your Tonj pile before your rival: build foundations Ace → King, arrange your slots, and load their piles with same-suit adjacent ranks. Watch for their missed mandatory moves — that is your Tonj Call.
