Dou Dizhu
One landlord. Two farmers working together.
Bidding decides your role; your plays set the pace. Race to finish as landlord, or coordinate with the other farmer so either teammate goes out first.
Learn the basics. Then take a seat.
- 01
Three players use a 54-card deck, with 17 cards each. Bid 1, 2 or 3, or pass; the landlord takes the three remaining cards.
- 02
The landlord leads. Beat the previous play with a higher matching shape or pass. Two passes let the last player lead again.
- 03
The landlord wins by going out first; either farmer going out wins for both. Bombs, rockets and springs affect the settlement multiplier.
Before you play
Do both farmers have to finish?
No. Either farmer going out first wins the hand for both farmers.
How does scoring work?
Each farmer settles base × bid × multiplier; the landlord settles both farmers’ combined result. The doubling multiplier is capped at 16. Full rules are available in the lobby.
