About this app
Old Maid: Classic Card Game is a one-on-one version of the familiar matching game, played against an AI opponent. It comes from independent developer Haruhiko Kishi. The rules are the traditional ones: on your turn you draw a face-down card from your opponent's hand, discard any pairs you make, and the player left holding the Joker at the end loses. When it is the AI's turn, your hand is shown face up so you can watch which card it picks. The game is played with the device held sideways, matched pairs are tossed onto the table, and wins and losses get their own animations and crowd reactions. Every card back features Moko, a Pomeranian in a polka-dot bow tie, which gives the game a light, friendly look. Because the rules take a minute to learn, it suits casual players, families and anyone who wants a quick game without opponents online. The app runs on iPhone, iPad and Mac, requires no account and is free to download. On iPhone Duo, the developer has added a layout for playing with the device partly folded.

How it uses iPhone Duo
In the version 1.3.8 release notes (October 21, 2026) the developer states that the game works with iPhone Duo, and the App Store description explains how. With the device folded partway, the hand you are drawing from stands on the upper half (the AI's cards on your turn, your own on its turn), while the table and the other hand lie flat on the lower half. Opened flat, the game fills the whole screen. DuoDiscover has not yet tested Old Maid on an iPhone Duo.
