What Makes Garbage/ Trash The Card Game Stand Out
Great card game for kids and adults alike, sometimes called "Trash" or "Garbage"!
Simply choose a new card from the deck or trash pile and try flipping all 10 of your cards over before the computer.
3 game modes for hours of fun!
Great for kids because the concept is easy to grasp, and the game teaches them counting skills.
Relaxing for adults, but also provides a sense of competition as you try getting your score on the global leader boards.
I hope you enjoyed playing, please consider leaving a review or checking out one of my other games! If you want to reach out to me my contact info is provided on the settings page in the game.
This Education game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
It is great we havent seen any ads and it costs no money.
We love this game, but we wish this was on our mod and we would like an extreme mode but overall great game.
We love trash so its amazing because we know how to play.
It help pass our time away and it makes it water when we want to play we can just play in our phone so easy to learn if beginner.
This game we play at school it is super fun.
This is our favorite app ever! It has no adds and the ere are multiple different playing levels and lengths of the game! They also give you instructions to start if you do not know how to play trash! We definitely recommend this app. If we did not like it we would not rate the app.
We love your game because it makes us better of putting cards in the right place faster and cards make us smarter and when Im feeling down or mad this game will make us happy and more focus. So thats why we love this game more people learn it fast because its easy for everyone and only takes a few steps to learn and this card game Trash is amazing and will make your life change thanks to Trash.
This game is so much fun!!! You get to challenge the AI!! This game is just so amazing!!! You should really try it!!! So much fun.
We have a card game exactly like this called garbage and this game is just the same as this game. So if you dont have the actual card game download this.
When we get bored we play this and always win.
Please give an option to shut off the red highlights when playing levels.
Is there a way that you can Play two or more players at a time So we could play against our grandkids.
We love to play garbage and this game lets us play it anywhere anytime just on our phone and we can play when no one wants to play garbage with us in general.
We love this game it is so so so so fun a great game for early learners it was so fun and easy.
The game is so fun we would want to play it all day.
Is there a way to play other members or friends.
This game is so fun. We wanna keep having these games in different versions.
So the game is awesome we play it lots but we wish there was a 2 player modr.
We cant figure out how to ask friends to play.
The only thing Id change is making the countdown clock an option & adding some instructions.
Hi lol sorry if this is long so we love this game we really really do its just the AIs win a lot when im down to one card and we chose one that card is the last card the AI needs irl you would be able to say trash and when you say trash the other player and cant it but in this one even when you do they can still take it if u have the time it would be a great one to fix that (not forcing just saying we would prob play it more ) our fav card game is trash its so much fun we play it all the time over all from that we LOVE this game it so much fun.
Usually all the apple App Store card games would be solitaire or something similar to that. But this being our favorite game we thought they wouldnt have it but they did! The only con is that we wish they game was just a little bit harder but other then that the game was pretty enjoining.
Its a very good app but if we play we barely win especially if Im on levels or hard we dont know if its a bug but we do not like it! Pls fix this.Your app is super good,but also we are starting to believe this game is cheating because we used to win a lot but now the computer ALWAYS wins we think that is all,pls look about it,thank you :3 (P.S pls dont take it as mean pls).
Please. We need multiplayer support.
Every time we play hard mode they never let somebody win it is always the computer and we feel like yall are giving the computer good cards because we keep on losing. So please make it to where you can win at least 6 times dang.
The AI has like a 70% chance winning and we only have like a 30% chance it feels impossible to win especially because when the ai gets a jack it knows what to flip this is dumb and we hope you read this and agree.
Every time we go the its the ais turn then it is getting so lucky and beating us on the first try. So we think its cheating or knows its next move so thats why we havent one once.
When someone wins it doesnt take one card the next round. The kings, queens, and jacks are not wild cards and have to be trashed. And there is a trash pile but thats in the game recycling not trash. This is a different game from whats advertised. Please fix it to where its the actual game advertised and not a different game.
Update: we were instructed that we should play levels mode. However we DONT want to play levels, it shows time the cards that ate coming next and we dont like that. We prefer the mystery, its more of a game w/ not help!!! Once we have gotten to 10 it brings us to the bonus, doesnt let us get down to 9 cards instead it makes us repeat 10 again. Over and over again.
Tho how do you play with your friends.
It is host tilt fun And we never get bord.
We dont really write reviews but this is such a fun game it doesnt have A lot of ads and is 3 different ways you can play it hard , easy , and levels.
Awesome and so relaxing we like love it.
We live the game and all but actually a king is a wild card not a jack just letting u know.
Like others have said… It would be better if after youve won a level, to be down a card instead of always having 10. Also, after the tutorial… We dont think its necessary to be told where the card needs to be placed.
Its fun , but it needs a button so that we can push to move onto the next level.
We get many people have many different variations of playing this but we think the most universal rule is that after someone gets all their cards the next game starts with 1 less card in their stash. In this version the game is over after 10 cards are drawn by you or computer. Speaking of computer when you get into the difficult game, the computer wins 80% of the time. Their draws are almost always in their favor. There is zero skill involved in garbage and purely luck of the draw. Thats taken out when the computer gets a good draw so often it makes the game borderline unplayable. Decent to play for maybe 5 minutes then it gets frustrating.
This game is horrible not because Im terrible Im actually really good but on this game the computer always wins but the only reason why its winning is because on its first try it only has 2 cards left which means it technically means it already won but with us no matter what we do it always makes us lose.
Really fun, user friendly game. Cool card designs to win, and the difficult level is a great challenge.
You cant reveal the cards that are in place and that make it really hard and thats why it gets three stars from us.
Our friend thought us this game and we thought wow we love it so we wanted to play on our phone well we found this game and we LOVE IT.
The game is very good overall, but we do wish that when you get a number and have a jack card in its place you could switch that card to put the jack in a place you do not have that number. Thats how it works in the actual game. We also think it would be nice to have levels like is sometimes played in garbage. In this, each player counts down his/her cards until they only have two, and one card is subtracted for each round a player wins. So each would by start getting to ten, then whichever player wins the first round would only need to get nine cards, and so on. But Im really enjoying the app so far.
We downloaded this app bc this is one of our fav card games but idk the computer isnt v fun to play against in this one://.
Update to our review below. Andrey, loved your response to our review, you have a great sense of humor! Updating our review to a 5 star for your awesome response and because the game has been much more random lately, win some lose some. Our kids have all downloaded game as well. We love playing Garbage with our kids, they taught us, so we thought it would be a great way to pass the time on airplanes when we travel. The game appears completely rigged, not a random number selection from a double deck of cards. Random number selection is the easiest thing in the world to program so we have to think the developer just cant stand even a random loss that has nothing to do with skill or smarts, just luck of the draw. Perhaps the author lost a lot of card games as a child and is trying to get some karmic payback. We still like the game, but personally cant play for long without feeling like a total loser.
There are some words mis-spelled. Like when you lose it says losser instead of loser. We dont have twitter to message the app developer hopefully you see this.
This is pretty fun, but id like there to be a how to play.
We love this game and have played it for years and once we seen that we could download it we were super excited but Ive played for hours and we never win like its not a hard or complicated game at all but we never win we dont get it.
Just learned to play this last night with real cards. Rules say you can swap a jack for anything but this game doesnt allow that. If we have a jack in the sport for 8 and we draw an 8 we should,be able to move the drama card to the 8 and place the jack in another empty spot.
