Which one suits you?
Stack Rush
A card game about laying cards in the right order: everyone builds the same four piles from 1 to 12, but each of you only wants to empty your own stock. The fun is in long turns where one card frees up the next.
Pick Stack Rush when two to six people want a relaxed card game with something to puzzle over.
Corner Chaos
A quick three-lap kart race on the TV, steered by turning your phone sideways like a wheel. Items from boxes – boost, oil slick, shield – keep the drivers at the back in with a chance.
Pick Corner Chaos when things can get loud and fast and you’ve got a TV.
What they have in common
- Both work for 2–6 players.
- You can play both against the computer.
- Both work from age 7.
- Both come free with Gather and need no account.
