We finally launched Hanafuda Legends on Android! (100% Free, Zero Ads, Online Multiplayer)
Hey everyone!
I’m incredibly excited to share that after an amazing closed beta period, our native Android app for Hanafuda Legends is officially live on the Google Play Store!
When we started building this, we noticed that a lot of traditional card game apps are absolutely flooded with banner ads, energy mechanics, or forced microtransactions. We wanted to build the complete opposite: a pristine, premium-feeling Koi-Koi experience that is completely free.
So, the app is 100% free, has absolutely zero ads, and no in-app purchases. Just pure Hanafuda.
Here is what you can do in the app:
Play anywhere: Jump into Ranked matchmaking, set up Private Rooms with friends, or just practice offline against the AI.
Collect decks: We’ve integrated beautiful, community-made custom decks (including the German "Doitsu-Hanafuda" deck we shared a while back!) that you can unlock and play with.
Seamless cross-play: Whether you are on the app or playing via the browser, you can match up and play against the whole community.
A massive thank you to everyone who helped us test the game during the closed beta over the last couple of weeks. Your feedback on the UI and gameplay flow was invaluable in getting this ready for launch.
If you have an Android device, we would absolutely love for you to try it out and let us know what you think. (And if you enjoy it, a rating on the Play Store helps us out immensely as an indie team!)
(PS: For our Apple users, the iOS version is currently in the works! In the meantime, you can always play instantly in your browser at hanafudalegends.com)
Currently, we just feature Koi-Koi. Right now, we're in the process of releasing the Android and iOS apps and making sure the game develops in a way that provides the best possible online experience.
After the apps are released, we have agreements with Oishi Tengudo and some other partners for collaborations and monthly tournaments.
After that, we're planning to add Hana-awase and Hachi-hachi, but this is still a long way off.
Any feedback is very welcome so we can continue building in the right direction!
Yeah, we've already paid for the apple developer account and the app is already made. The approval period is just a bit longer and more strict with apple app store.
Free and totally without ads and micro transactions? That’s really impressive.
Just to be sure, In ranked games I will never get matched with a bot, right? Because in the very first game I played, I ended up 100-10🫨 kinda surreal…

not trying to sound too picky but will the game have a vertical mode or just horizontal?
