Whether you are 13, 53, or 93 we built Hand & Foot Friends & Family Edition so players of all ages can play together, or against computer opponents. Family organizer allows you to pay for and manage family member’s subscriptions for them.
Test your skills
Show us what you've got by playing in the world's first and only online, daily Duplicate Hand & Foot tournament! Each day the same cards are dealt to all the players competing in the tournament, which removes luck and leaves your skill as the only "X" factor.
Sophisticated for the experienced player, accessible for the newbie, fun for all!
Experience and strategy matter, but no matter how good you are there’s always a chance a newbie will go out on you and catch you with your foot and wipe the floor. Chance and randomness keep the game exciting and fun to play. We love it when a player new to Hand & Foot finishes their first game and we hear “Can we play again?”

Beautiful design
We re-imagined what Hand & Foot can be when you are not bound to physical cards or
game table. We removed the clutter that characterize other online games to create a clean, bright
and fun playing experience.
Our story
The summer of 2020 was the first year we could not gather together for our reunion and play Hand & Foot, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I looked at the canasta and Hand & Foot games available online and never found anything that let our family play with the rules we wanted to use. Thus, the idea for Hand & Foot Friends & Family Edition™ was born. It had to accomplish two things: give my family a way to play even when separated geographically AND let us play the way WE wanted to play.
After writing down some notes on what the game should be I started actually developing a prototype of the game in August 2020 and then hired a visual designer to help with the graphics and user interface/experience in October 2020. We finished the initial prototype just in time for Thanksgiving 2020 and have been iterating and improving it ever since. Now we are ready to share it with you.
Our goal is to create the best online version of Hand & Foot available. We hope you and yours experience the joy our family has when we play together, and want you to make the game your own.

“I like the balance of luck and skill involved in this game. It’s not
all
skill like chess and it’s not all luck like Bunco. It’s a game you can get better at and, even
though I might not win against a more experienced team, the game makes me FEEL like I could, and
that makes me want to play again.”
