Play Canasta Online

Please follow these steps to start a online game:

• Of course, first download and install Canasta
• Open Canasta
• Select Network from the menu, then select Lobby
• Enter a nickname and press Login. If you have a Canasta License Key, the nickname you select will remain reserved for you
• Select the name of a person in the 'Available Players' list and press 'Invite' to start a match. That's it!
• If there are no players available, press 'Hide, stay available' to close the Lobby screen while staying available for play

Ladder Competition

On the ladder you will find players of every strength, so that you can enjoy a game against someone of your own level. Of course, it's also an excellent opportunity to improve that level!

The second Canasta ladder competition is Canasta Our Way.
