Card Plinko
Drop a card down the plinko board. Watch it bounce through the pegs. Land on the 5x jackpot — or lose it all at 0x. Five drops, one score. How lucky are you?
Card Plinko
Drop 5 cards down the plinko board. Each card bounces through pegs and lands on a multiplier. Hit the 5x jackpot center — or fall to the 0x gutter on the edges.
How to Play
A random card appears with its estimated value. This is your base score for the drop.
Click Drop to release the card into the plinko board. It bounces randomly at each row of pegs.
The card lands in a multiplier slot: 0x, 0.3x, 0.5x, 1x, 2x, or the jackpot 5x. Your score = value x multiplier.
After 5 drops, your total score is graded S through F. Daily mode lets you compare with friends!
Plinko Tips
- 1. High-value cards make jackpots worth much more — a $500 card at 5x = $2,500 points.
- 2. The 5x center slot is the hardest to hit — most drops land in the 0.5x to 2x range.
- 3. Daily mode uses the same cards for everyone — compare scores to see who got luckier.
- 4. In random mode, keep playing to chase that perfect game: five 5x jackpots in a row!
- 5. Watch the physics — the ball genuinely bounces randomly at each peg. No two drops are the same.
FAQ
How do I play Card Plinko?
A random sports card is shown with its estimated market value. Click Drop to send it down a 10-row plinko board. The card bounces left or right at each peg randomly. At the bottom, it lands in a multiplier slot ranging from 0x to 5x. Your score for that drop is the card value times the multiplier. You get 5 drops per game.
What are the multiplier slots?
The board has 11 slots at the bottom. From left to right: 0x, 0.3x, 0.5x, 1x, 2x, 5x, 2x, 1x, 0.5x, 0.3x, 0x. The center 5x slot is the jackpot, while the edges are 0x — you lose the card value entirely. Most drops land in the 0.5x to 2x range.
Is there a daily challenge?
Yes. Daily mode uses the same 5 cards and the same plinko paths for everyone each day, so you can compare scores with friends. Random mode generates fresh cards and random bounces every time.
How is the final grade calculated?
Your total score across all 5 drops determines your grade. Getting multiple 5x jackpots on high-value cards earns an S grade. The grading scale goes S, A, B, C, D, F based on total accumulated value.
