Question 1

What is AsNard and how is it different?

Accepted Answer

AsNard is a full Iranian games platform, not a single game: 31 games in one ecosystem — 3D backgammon, Persian card games, seven skill and action titles, voice-chat party games and live-world games — plus clubs, tournaments, a hangout and a shop.

Question 2

Which games are included?

Accepted Answer

Seven card games (4-player and 2-player Hokm, Shelem, 4-player and 2-player Chahar Barg, Texas Hold'em, Uno), eight board and logic games (backgammon, Ludo, Snakes & Ladders, dominoes, billiards, battleship, Mastermind, Othello), seven skill and action games (3D bowling, darts, Olympic archery and basketball, plus finger soccer, tanks and horse racing), five party games (mafia, Spyfall, Draw & Guess, Dark Protocol, Truth or Dare) and three live-world games (Caravan Raid, Golden Rain, Silk Road Settlement).

Question 3

Is it really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sign-up, every game and all main modes are free. Purchases are limited to cosmetics and the season pass, and nothing is required to play.

Question 4

Is there voice chat inside the games?

Accepted Answer

Yes — over twenty games carry real in-room voice chat, from coordinating with your Hokm partner to arguing a case in mafia. No external call app needed.

Question 5

How does backgammon work on AsNard?

Accepted Answer

It runs in the browser: dice are rolled by a 3D physics engine, the doubling cube rotates through 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and 64, and you pick classic, ranked or blitz. Private rooms and spectating are included.

Question 6

How do I play with friends?

Accepted Answer

Open a private room with an invite code, send an invite from the in-game messenger, or create a lobby with one Telegram command inside your group — everyone joins with a tap.

Question 7

How do tournaments and ranking work?

Accepted Answer

Each ranked game has its own ELO ladder from Bronze to Grandmaster, with a seasonal leaderboard, medals and achievements. Weekly coin tournaments run on a schedule.

Question 8

Are the games cheat-resistant?

Accepted Answer

Game logic and physics run server-side, so a result cannot be forged from the client. Rate limiting, input validation, recorded replays and player reporting sit on top.

Question 9

Does it work on mobile?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The UI is built for phones and tablets, graphics quality steps down automatically on weaker devices, and you can install it as a PWA or open it inside Telegram and Bale.

Question 10

What is the hangout?

Accepted Answer

A personalized 3D social room inside the platform — buy furniture and themes, collect wall signatures and likes from friends, and play two built-in neon minigames before a match.

Question 11

Hokm or Chahar Barg — which should I play?

Accepted Answer

Hokm suits classic team play and deeper strategy; Chahar Barg is great for fast rounds and easy online starts. Both are free on AsNard — see our full comparison in the blog.

Question 12

What is Pasoor on AsNard?

Accepted Answer

Pasoor is the team card lobby — Hokm, Shelem, and group matches with matchmaking and friend invites. Full guide in our blog: Pasoor rules.

Question 13

Shelem or Hokm — which is better?

Accepted Answer

Hokm is easier to start with; Shelem is deeper with bidding and kitty. We recommend Hokm first, then Shelem — comparison in the blog.
