This is a computer version of the popular game German Whist. German Whist is a two-handed version of Whist, which was created in England, not Germany. [don't ask me] It is a game of tricks, and trying to win them.

Thirteen cards are dealt to you and your opponent, and the remaining are set face down, except for the top card. The top card after the deal is the trump suit. Then you play phase one untill the remaining cards are gone through. You make tricks, and the winner of the trick gets the top card, the loser gets the second card. Since you can see the top card, you can improve your hand for the second phase.

In the second phase, the winner of each trick gets one point. Default is playing to 50, but you can set the total to win at anything you want. You can play this game against the computer or online by hosting a game. There is scoring, animation, card. cardback, color, dealing, game, message, microphone, mouse, music, online, opponent, player, quickset, rule, screen, sound, and speech preference menus.

The game keeps score for you. This is a game that could be played by the whole family.
