Free poker in Johor Bahru, without going anywhere: Anubis City is a browser game where real people play Texas Hold’em, 75-ball bingo, roulette and blackjack for debens — the game’s own coins, worth nothing outside it. Open it on a phone, come in as a guest and pick a table. Nothing is bought, and nothing is cashed out.

Plenty of JB people cross the Causeway or the Second Link to work in Singapore and get home late. The two cities share a clock, UTC+8, and in the game they share a city too, so one private table can seat friends from both sides: a saved character opens it, the others join by link or code. Both countries are strict about gambling for money, each in its own way, and Anubis City has no money in it at all — see the pages for Malaysia and Singapore. Many Muslim players avoid gambling-style games on principle, free or not; that choice is theirs.

Since January 2025 Johor has kept a Saturday–Sunday weekend again, like Singapore, so Friday night suits a game on both sides of the strait. In the City of the Week race, Johor Bahru plays against every city in the game, Singapore included: its score is the experience of its ten best players over the last seven days, and each race day starts at 8 a.m. local time. Skudai, Iskandar Puteri and Pasir Gudang are listed separately in the city search, so pick the one you live in.

Questions

Can I play with friends who live in Singapore?

Yes. Everyone shares one city: add each other as friends, or open a private poker table and send the link.

Is online poker legal in Johor?

Malaysian law targets gaming for money or money’s worth, and no online gambling is licensed. Anubis City has no money or money’s worth in it, so, as we read the law, it is outside those offences. We are not lawyers.

Which games suit a bus ride across the Causeway?

Bingo in an auto hall and the slots need little attention. Poker wants a move every 15 seconds, so save it for when you can watch the screen — and press “Step away” before your stop.
