Offsuit is casual poker, redesigned. No forced pop-ups, no fake felt or neon, and no account needed. Just dead simple offline poker with helpful in-game stats.

Hey everyone! I'm Sam, the designer of Offsuit. 👋 For the past year, my co-founder Eli and I have been working on this little app and we're super excited to launch the MVP. We're casual poker fans, but we've always been frustrated by the free poker apps out there - you spend more time closing pop-ups than actually playing, and the UI is full of fake felt, leather, and neon. We see poker like investing - it's a serious activity that involves research, strategy, and risk. The industry standard, though, is to treat poker like a scam casino game. So, we built Offsuit. It's dead simple: • No constant pop-ups • No account needed • No waiting for games • No fake felt or neon Just free poker against intelligent AI opponents with helpful in-game stats. We've started with a small MVP, but we're already working hard towards online multiplayer games, educational breakdowns for new players, and in-game hand ranges. Check us out on iOS or Android: https://offsuit.page.link/download 📱 We'd love to hear any feedback you have! 🙏

The design of this app is absolutely lovely. It’s clean, simple and just a pleasure to use. I can see playing with friends on the roadmap, what’s the intention for that given there are no accounts? Apple Game Centre?

@richinapps Thanks Richard! In the near term the intention is to allow users to opt into adding a username, which can be used to compete in a global leaderboard each week. The actual gameplay will still be offline, we’ll just be comparing hands-won / earned bankroll. We’re also exploring fully-online multiplayer games that users could opt into, but it’s a bigger lift and might end up being a separate app. Still a ways to go! We hadn’t thought of Game Center, though, thanks for the suggestion! Definitely need to check that out.

Been thinking about bad UI in poker for a while! Looking forward to using this.

The first thing I felt when I tested your product was the level to which many designers strive all their lives. The kind of usable simplicity that is changing the market. In short and simple terms – the product at the MVP stage already looks better than 99% of others. Good luck with your development!

@vladbahara Thank you for your feedback and support!

Looks beautiful! How many people are currently on the platform?
Sam Giambalvo
@anurag_baddam1 Thanks Anurag! We've got over 250 users, but because our MVP is offline you only need yourself to start a game. We're working on setting up leaderboards and online-multiplayer games soon, though!
