Octro Teenpatti:
Owned by the same game developers this is another card game which people have loved this year. It is like poker but there is no involvement of real cash and only chips are used. The game is usually played between a group of three to six people and uses a 52-card pack without jokers. Each player is dealt three cards face down. Before the cards are dealt, the boot amount is decided and collected from each player. The boot amount is the minimum stake amount put in the pot, which is the money kept in the centre of the table. As the game progresses the pot money grows and is won by the winner of that hand. Winner is the player who remains in the game till the completion of the hand and has the best hand or the highest hand based on the cards ranking shown below. This game also comes in variations like 6 Patti, Teen Patti Battle, 3-2-1, Private Table.
Octro Sweep:
The game is also called Seep. It’s a fishing card game played between two or four players with a 52-card pack without jokers. The objective here is to capture cards that have point values. The total value is 100 as under. All cards of spades have point values equal to their capture value (from king worth 13 down to ace worth 1 point). Each ace is worth 1 and 10 of diamonds is worth 6 points. Thus only 17 cards – 13 cards of spade, 3 aces of other suits and ten of diamonds has point values, while all other cards have nil point value. This game is also played with chips.
