The candlelit tavern in the app: an old cavalier with a tankard waits across the table while a coin is tossed.

Animated mode

Pull up a chair

Your coin lands on a painted table, and whoever sits across it reacts to every throw, with the fire, wind and rain all around you.

  • An old cavalier with a feathered hat and a tankard, by the fire in a candlelit tavern.

    Candlelit tavern

    A snowed-in tavern, 1640. An old cavalier who swears the coin has never let him down.

    “Well? I’m not getting any younger, friend.”
  • A soldier with a steaming mug in a snowy forest camp at night, behind a snow-covered drum.

    Winter forest camp

    A snowbound camp in the 1800s. The fire crackles, and your coin comes down on a frozen drum.

    “Toss it, lad. My tea’s going cold.”
  • A grinning pirate captain with a parrot on his shoulder, behind a barrel on a stormy deck.

    Pirate ship, storm

    A storm at sea. A cheeky captain and his parrot wait behind a barrel as the lantern swings.

    “Toss it, matey! The parrot’s getting bored.”

More tables are on the way: a Wild West saloon, a Russian winter fair, a Paris café, a Nuremberg workshop and an Indian palace.
