About Whist
Play partnership Whist with a computer teammate against two computer opponents. Every deal gives each seat thirteen cards, and the dealer’s final card establishes trumps. This edition keeps five-point Short Whist without honours, plus One Deal and a UTC Daily challenge. The public trick record helps you remember played cards. Three difficulty settings and a legal-card hint support practice while opponent hands remain hidden. Local continuation also preserves the score between deals.
How to play
Choose a legal card from your hand on your turn. Follow the led suit whenever possible; unavailable cards are disabled. Hint highlights a possible play, and Previous tricks recalls public cards. In Classic, review the deal’s points and choose Next deal to continue the match.
Rules in this version
- Four players form two partnerships. You and the opposite computer seat share a team.
- Deal thirteen cards each. The dealer’s last card sets trumps, and the seat to the dealer’s left leads.
- Follow the led suit if you have it. Otherwise any card is legal.
- Highest trump wins, or highest led-suit card if no trump is played. The winner leads the next trick.
- After thirteen tricks, each team scores one point per trick above six. Classic is first to five points, with honours excluded.
- One Deal and Daily require seven team tricks to win. Daily uses Medium difficulty and a UTC date.
Tips for playing
- A partner already winning the trick may let you save a high card rather than spending it needlessly.
- Use the public trick record alongside your own remaining suits. It does not reveal anyone’s unplayed cards.
Questions about this game
Is this multiplayer Whist?
No. You play with a computer partner against two computer opponents; there is no online lobby.
Can I continue between deals?
Yes. Local continuation restores the team scores and the finished deal’s summary. It does not silently deal the next hand.
