Features

Everything the game needs

Built for speed, fairness, and the authentic Septica experience.

Real-Time Multiplayer

Play against real opponents over Phoenix Channels. Sub-100ms latency. Reconnect seamlessly if you drop.

4 AI Difficulty Levels

From beginner to expert. AI uses card counting, probability, and bluffing strategies calibrated to challenge every skill level.

Ranked Matchmaking

ELO-based rating system (K=32 for new players, K=16 for veterans). Queue matches you with opponents within your skill window.

Fair Play by Design

Server-authoritative game state. No cheating possible — the server validates every move. Opponent cards never sent to your client.

Leaderboards & Seasons

Seasonal rankings with win rate, games played, and ELO history. Compete for the top spot each month.

Play Anywhere

Browser-first. Works on desktop, tablet, and phone under CodeSwiftr SRL.

How It Works

Three taps to your first game

No account needed to start. Jump in as a guest or create an account to save your rating.

1

Choose Your Mode

Play vs AI (4 levels) for practice, or join the ranked queue for real opponents.

2

Play Your Cards

Classic Septica rules. Lead a card, opponent objects or passes. 7 beats everything. Collect 10s and Aces to score.

3

Climb the Ranks

Win games, earn ELO, and rise on the seasonal leaderboard. Track your stats and improve your strategy.

Playtest

Help prove repeat play first

Septica is in beta validation. The only ask right now is simple: finish one Practice vs Bot game, then come back another day with the same guest name.

1

Open the beta

Use the browser link on mobile or desktop. No install and no account setup needed.

2

Reuse a guest name

Enter a name you can use again so the validation loop can count return sessions correctly.

3

Finish and return

Complete one Practice vs Bot game today and another one on a later day.
