It’s rated 4+ and currently has 1,590+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Super Skido Spite & Malice Stand Out
Entertaining card game with simple rules. Easy to learn, hard to stop!
Love card games? Try funny and vibrant SKIDO and you will never regret it.
SKIDO is quite similar to Spite & Malice or Cat & Mouse. In this game, a player needs to drop all their cards onto the table.
You can play SKIDO for free, without registration. Play offline (with no wifi) and see global players rating online. Select the difficulty level and duration. The game can perfectly fit in a short break, cheer up a commute, or help you to skip long and boring waiting time. Engage in card fun at any time!
Rules:
-
At the beginning, every player has the equal number of cards. They are piled backs up, and the top card is turned and laid on the pile. The goal is to get rid of the whole deck. The first player that drops all their cards wins the game.
-
Upon every turn, the player gets 5 cards in hands. Cards are piled in decks in the table center, starting from 1. At their turn, every player needs to continue decking (up to 4 decks can be on the table). The player can lay any number of cards during their turn.
-
For instance, three piles are on the table, with top cards 1, 7, and 10. The player has 3, 2, 2, 11, and 12 in hands, while the top card of their deck is 1. They lay 1 to start a new deck, covering it with 2 and then 3, laying another 2 onto the pile with 1 on the top. Then 11 goes onto 10, the player turns another card and sees 7 that they cannot lay at this turn. Then they get rid of 12 by placing it onto 11. All that goes on until the player cannot lay anything onto the table.
Completed decks are discarded to give a free space for a new deck.
Joker cards 'J' can replace any card.
The player’s turn is finished when the player dropping one of their cards onto the backup deck to their right. Players can lay any number of cards onto discard piles deck and lay them in any order. However, players can only take cards from the top of the deck.
About Skido
Skido is a challenging and free card game that allows offline (no wifi) mode. It looks amazing, resembling a patience, i.e. a card game involving little interaction between players. And though the game is not knowledge-intensive or complex, it has strategic elements that can make the game even more intriguing. Play with no wifi, offline!
Give yourself a try in Skido!

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We love playing Skip-bo and this app is the closest thing we could find (the app skip-po is constantly not loading right and auto playing for us which we HATE and this app doesnt do crap like that!) we do have some notes though: if its a deck game with a set number of cards being randomly shuffled into the deck why are the joker cards not being more randomly integrated instead of having to watch an ad or pay for them? Lame cash grab that we dont appreciate. Also we wish there was at least a pass and play mode so you could play with someone sitting next to you. Finally, the ad at the end of the game is so long and then for us the game goes black and we have to close and reopen it to start a new game.
Overall the game play is good with minimal ad interruption. However, the computer, even at its hardest level, is still simple and easy to beat making this game mostly challenging yourself.
The recent revision of this game includes much longer ads that have sound. We cant stand that. It used to be a quiet game. Sure we can hit the mute button, but since you cant tell when those ads will pop up during game play they just blurt out at inconvenient times. Im sure the idea of this revision was to make people so irritated by the ads that they would drop the $2.99 to get the ads removed. Sorry, that isnt going to work. We will probably just delete the game. Its not so overwhelmingly fun that we cant live without it.
This would a better game if you had the option to play with people.
It would be more fun if we could change the background board color and backs of cards. Otherwise great game.
Would like to speed up play! Wouldnt mind being able to change card backs and opponents names.
We like the game. It is fun to play. The only major problem is that it is so slow to play. The cards from your opponents seem like they are moving in slow motion. Fix this problem and we would give it more stars.
Too many right in the middle of plays,and takes 5 seconds for each one. Sorry but we dont pay to remove ads. We will remove the app. Does anyone understand the scoring.
We really like this game, especially since Skip-Bo is being taken down. Biggest complaint is the game speed. It cant be adjusted and its super slow. We like a more fast paced game. Can there please be an update to fix this and add enhancements.
We love this little game. Its simple, but keeps your attention. If you want a joker you have to watch an ad. We love the games in the ads, but we cant afford to pay to play.
This game is great and addictive but there are TOO MANY ADS.
We used to LOVE this game, it was simple but fun. Now random ads pop up, it plays an ad between games, asks you to watch an ad to jet a joker (free card), we swear it takes forever to pay a game now and it's annoying. Please take it back to the way it used to be.
The game is fun to play, but sometimes we get the feeling that it is somehow preprogrammed and already determined how it will end.
We really like this simplified version. We play it often. If we could make one request it would be that when in landscape mode it would orient to either side instead of just one side. Thank you.
The game itself is engaging and fun, and the icing on the cake is how reasonable the ads are.
Love this and play this all the time in deaf groups.
This game is so habit forming. Enjoy playing it.
Now our mom and we can play together and we can score.
The computer keeps on giving us chances to clear cards from our stack. Program better logic.
We are enjoying this card game. It would be nice if you dont have to touch each card and then touch the spot you want each card to go to. We get the joker card needing to be told where to go but it would be nice to just tap the cards once and have it go to the spot it clearly will go to, like a 2 going directly onto a 1. Also the graphics are fine but could be more appealing.
This has been the game we always play before going to bed because we were able to set the backdrop to a dark mode style and help wind down. When Im bored we open the game up. This IS our default phone game in every scenario. Even when Im binging some new puzzle game, this is what we turn to when Im wanting to relax but not do anything specific. Way better than doomscrolling. However, with the new update the boxes light up. Which now serves as not only a guide/hint like in those OG solitaire pc games but theyre bright and obnoxious. And since this game is solely for our wind down time we have to give it 4 stars until theres a way to have options letting us turn it off. Game play itself is great otherwise for a basic skipbo game. Which is why we prefer this app to the actual skipbo app.
This game is fun and relaxing but during the game we have so many ads.
We have played this game for years and its one of the cleanest ways to play Spite & Malace without all the levels and prizes and cartoon graphics that Skip-Bo now has. However we were forced to update and although its not the latest, it did seem an unnecessary update and the look wasnt quite as nice. But the biggest problem is having an ad shoved down our throat in the MIDDLE of the game! Its disruptive and rude. This wasnt happening with our earlier version, in fact we dont recall ANY ads. So although we would have given it a strong 5 stars once its now a shakey 3. Cant anyone perform an update without wrecking the app.
Great game but ads right in middle of game! Over and over. Ads should come at END of game.
Love this game. Have been playing for years. Always a go-to app. We dont like the new light-up card piles. Its a deal breaker for us.
We like that somebody said the AI is cheating because we know it is. But its the algorithm that is determining the level of difficulty so if you could just turn that off so its totally random 100% then wed be happy. Please total random shuffling of the cards. We mean Im still beating you, but we know youre cheating with your algo.
We love this game. We play every day. Our go to first and last.
There are so many ads. The game is fun except the other Players get jokers and realplayer gets few if you dont buy them. Annoying ads in middle ode game.
Like the game but way to many long ads. Older version was better.
Fun game but definitely needs an update.
This game needs to allow you to back a card out that your fingers mistakenly missed the pile. Once you mistakenly place a card. You cant back it out.
It will be more fun if you add an online multiplayer mode for super Skido. So mom and we can play together and we can score.
We liked the previous game of Skido a lot. This new version offers the ability to buy Joker cards. This not only feels like cheating, it costs money and the game no longer gives you jokers for free. We used to get several per game – just like the real card game – but now we're lucky to get 1 per game. And, either our play has deteriorated a lot, or the game is stacked against you. We are playing both versions and there is a clear weighting towards the AI players. It's no longer a fun game and we regret paying to have the ads removed since we will probably not keep the game.
We played this game for years and was forced to download this one Not happy that after every other move it goes to an ad that is not only annoying but extremely loud in our hearing aids. Also hard to close them. Im 73 and your wasting a lot of our time.
New version turns game into a long commercial for other games.
We have played the original Skido for several years and loved it. Today we had to update it. So we played. In the original game they had an ad after every game. Now they have many ads during the game. Its not enjoyable any more. So disappointed.
It took us a minute to understand how to play this game but now that we have we love it. Im addicted to and usually play it for 30 minutes a day. Try it, we promise you will love it.
A great stress relief after a long day of work to sit down and play.
Love this game! Very relaxing and fun! We miss the back button though.
Love the game but nothing worse then ads in the middle of the game and when or if you can get thru them the games over adding to the your loss total .Its totally frustrating!!! Thinking of deleting the game maybe. Cant you find a way to show ads after the finished game.
Love the game but it freezes all the time. We constant have to close it, clear it from our screen and retry to get it back to normal. Frustrating because we really do enjoy the game.
This game is no stress with enjoyment.
We had to reinstall our app as it froze up on us and when we did we lost all our statistics. Also it is set for four players and we cant figure out how to set it to one player against the computer, which Is how Ive always played. Please advise.
We can honestly understand annoying ads between games but when an ad pops up during the game more than 3 times that is cause for deleting the ap. We might have eventually paid for the no ad feature but we didnt even get a chance to become familiar with the nuances of the game format. Boo.
We have fun playing this game, however, we noticed that it seems to be cheating. Is that possible? Is this game playing with other live players or computer based? Ive begun to notice that the other two players seem to be working together to assist the other in winning and us in losing. Can that be or am we just that competitive? Just curious and a bit frustrated. Thanks.
Once you start you will not want to stop.
Our great relatives use to play this game all the time we thought as a child they made it up because outside our family we never met anyone who knew how to play we recently found out that our great uncle learned it while in the service stationed in Indian and came home and taught it to our family we love this game it is a family tradition and Im so happy we found it on your app thanks.
We love this game, its very relaxing,.
Love this game. You can set your own version from easy to hard.
We played this game back in the old days (50+ years ago), so we were so excited when we found it here. Love it.
