How to play Rock Paper Scissors online

Rock beats scissors, scissors beats paper, and paper beats rock. Pick your move and the computer chooses at random at the same time; the scoreboard keeps track of wins, losses and ties. Because the computer's choice is uniformly random, each of the three outcomes has a 1 in 3 chance over time and there is no winning strategy against it. Need a quick tie-breaker for something else? Use a coin flip or dice roller.

How to use it

  1. Click Rock, Paper or Scissors.
  2. See the computer choice and the result.
  3. Keep playing and track the score.
