Card Games have been part of the human tradition for thousands of years. The earliest sign of this delightful pastime comes to us from the Chinese, with various variations of card games being played throughout the ancient Middle Kingdom. When European traders arrived they not only brought silk, fine porcelain, and exotic spices back to Europe, but also various new types of entertainment, one amongst them being the humble card game. Ever since then the card game has evolved, taking on new forms to accomplish different means.

But in all fairness, card games can be quite boring, not to mention sometimes downright infuriating. How many hands of Rummy does it take before you want to bash someone’s head in with a blunt object? One. It takes one hand of Rummy to do that. Don't even get me started on UNO, or as it’s also known, Devious Colored Playing Cards of Family Destruction. The world of free online card games is a different world indeed. Venture into a vast array of entertaining variations of the humble card game, all of them completely free with no download required!

But we do not simply want you to exchange your boring real life card game experience for an equally boring online experience. No, we want to change your mind about free online card games. Best part is that because all of these game require no download you have nothing to lose, and an entire universe of free online card games to gain!

Gentlemen BlackJack

We’ll start with a well known old favourite, BlackJack! It is almost not possible to mention free online card games without mentioning BlackJack. BlackJack is the prince amongst card games and Gentlemen BlackJack is the best of the bunch. For those of you who don’t know how BlackJack works I recommend watching 21 starring Kevin Spacey. For those of you who don’t have the patience or fortitude for struggling through a Spacey movie, here goes: The objective of the game is to score 21 points, or as close as possible. King, Queen, Jack and Ten all score you ten points, with the Ace counting either 1 or 11.

The dealer has to stay, i.e. can’t receive more cards as soon as they reach 17. You can also choose to split if you have two card of the same value, or choose to double your bet if your cards are less than 15. Quick tip though, don't try to count cards. Neither in a real casino, because it tends to get you a lifetime ban, nor during a free online card game, because the computer uses a self regenerating deck for each hand. Duh...

Poker Star

If BlackJack is the prince of free online card games, there has to be no question about who is the undisputed king… Poker. Poker Star is without a doubt the best free online card game available. This amazing poker game requires no download and will have you bluffing and calling your hours, and sometimes your fortune, away. Play single player or multiplayer in this fun online game.

In Poker Star you play Texas Hold’em, arguably the most popular variation of the game. In this variant you get dealt two cards (Your Hand), with three comunal cards (The Flop) being dealt in the middle of the table. You then bet in accordance to the strength of your hand before the Flop is revealed (Pre Flop Action). There will also be a big and a small blind to ensure that no player receives an unfair advantage due to the order of betting. The flop is then revealed, combining with the two cards in your hand to complete your hand by forming 5 cards in total. Betting once again takes place before another card (The Turn) and then again before and after the last card (The River) is revealed. What makes this free online card game so interesting is the amount of variables that the player needs to deal with. But always remember, great Poker Players don't play the cards, they play their opponents!

War Card

Okey, so you’re tired of the traditional variations of free online card games and you want something a little more, unconventional. War Card has got your back, bro. In War Card you control one of two castles and at each turn you are dealt a new hand of cards which you can use to win the game. The cards are basically actions that you have to buy with your resources. There’s four types of resources, Gold, Wood, Oil, and Magic. Spend them wisely as you employ all of your gray matter in a bid to outwit your computerised opponent!

There’s a wide variety of actions you can buy with your resources, and the type of action depends on the type of resource; Upgrading your gold mine will use your wood resource, whilst exploring the forest to gain more wood will use your gold. Summoning a fleet of vicious dragons will cost magic points, whilst bombarding your opponents castle with flaming catapult shot is gonna cost some oil. The fact that you are dealt a new hand each turn makes this an unique free online card game experience, as you do not get to build up a deck. It also adds an air of uncertainty, as you never know whether you’ll be dealt a great or a bad hand. Think you’ve got what it takes to tumble the other castle over? Play this free online card game right now, with no download!

Age Of Rivals

If the previous couple of free online card games were a physics test, then this one is a full blown doctorate on String Theory. I’m not completely sure why I’m including it on this list, because I have no idea how to describe it. If I’m forced to describe it I would say complicated, but thoroughly enjoyable!

There’s just so many different facets to this game that it will be impossible to describe them all. This is one free online card game that you’ll have to go try out by yourself. That is, if you’re smart enough. Take your friends with you and see if you can get some cool multiplayer side-by-side co-op going!
