About President
President is a climbing card game against three computer opponents. Lead a single card or equal-rank set; replies must match the set size at a higher rank. Passing is a legal tactical choice. The order players empty their hands determines four places and the next hand’s card exchanges. Three difficulty levels, visible play history and a local finish record help you follow the table. A UTC Daily deal provides a separate, fixed-start challenge without exchanges.
How to play
Select cards of one rank, then use Play cards. Beat the table with an equal-size higher set, or choose Pass even when you could play. Hint selects an available reply. When everyone else passes, the last player to play leads again. After a classic hand, choose Next hand to apply place-based exchanges.
Rules in this version
- Deal thirteen cards each from a fifty-two-card deck without jokers.
- Ranks run from three through ace, then two highest. Suits do not break ties.
- Lead one card or an equal-rank set. A reply needs the same number of cards at a higher rank.
- Passing is allowed with a legal reply and does not permanently lock you out of the trick.
- When all other active players pass, the last player to play leads. If they have gone out, the next active player leads.
- Next hand, President returns two lowest cards for Last’s two highest; middle places exchange one. Daily has no exchange. Revolutions are not used.
Tips for playing
- Keeping a group intact may beat spending part of it on a small trick. Opponent card counts are public; their remaining ranks are not.
- Passing can preserve a high card for a later lead. The recent-play record recalls public moves without exposing hidden hands.
