Description:

Chopsticks turns your own hands into the whole game board. There's no fancy weapon or vehicle here, just fingers, math, and a little bit of trickery aimed at your opponent.

You each start with one finger up on each hand, and every tap either adds to your rival's count or knocks a hand out of the fight entirely. It's a quick hypercasual duel that rewards sharp thinking more than fast clicking.

What makes it interesting is the splitting rule. If one of your hands has an even number of fingers, you can redistribute them between your two hands instead of just tapping forward, which opens up comeback plays you wouldn't expect from something this simple.

🎮️ How to play

Each match is a back and forth exchange between your hands and your opponent's, so timing your moves matters.

Tap your opponent's hand to transfer your hand's finger count onto it.
A hand is knocked out once it reaches five fingers.
Click or tap your own hand when it shows an even number of fingers to split and redistribute them.

On mobile, all of the same moves work with a simple touch. Tap the hand you want to hit, or tap your own hand to split, no extra buttons needed.

There's no story or level list to chase here, the progress is entirely in your head as you count fingers and plan two or three moves ahead.

It's the kind of small, sharp brain workout that keeps pulling you back for one more round.

Save a split for the moment your hand is about to hit five.
Try to push your opponent's hands toward uneven totals they can't split.
