HEARTS 2

Regulars of the card section of our portal will appreciate the new Russian-language interpretation of the game Hearts (or Worms), which we called Hearts 2. Its most successful features: versatility (you can play on tablets, phones, and regular computers), as well as ease. Speaking of lightness, we mean the simplicity of the game's design from a technical point of view. It loads quickly and doesn't require any resources.

The rules of the game Hearts are available for everyone to understand. Four people play: You and three computer players. The whole deck (52 cards) is dealt equally. Each player gets rid of one card per turn. The system of bribes is ordinary — the highest card of the suit from which you entered takes the bribe. The task of each player is to get rid of all the hearts, i.e. all the cards of the red suit. There is another card to be afraid of. This is the queen of spades.

So, 13 hearts and one queen of spades — these are the cards that can not be taken in bribes. Get rid of them by selling them to your opponents. Naturally, the distribution does not always allow you to comfortably sell the above-mentioned cards to your opponents. It happens that some (or even all!) I have to take it myself. Scoring is done in a penalty manner. For each chervonka taken, they are fined 1 point, the queen of spades costs 13.

The game continues for several rounds in a row, after which all the results for each round are summed up. The winner is the player with the lowest penalty.

At the beginning of each round, players exchange three random cards. A player who has a deuce of crosses in his hands does not exchange anything, and goes with it. Further explanation of the rules will turn into a discussion of the strategy and tactics of the game, and here everyone has their own approach.

Separately, it should be said about the currently fashionable artificial intelligence. In the settings, you can set the level of each opponent's game: from 1 (weak) to 4 (strong). By setting all levels to 4, you will get serious opponents, against which it will not be easy to play. By default, the settings are set to mixed levels (1,2,3). Have a good game!
