Hearts

Hearts is played by four players with a 52-card deck. Every heart you take costs 1 point and the Queen of Spades costs 13. The game ends when someone reaches 100 points — the lowest score wins.

Passing

Before each hand you pass three cards: to the left, then right, then across, then no pass, repeating. Tap three cards and press Pass.

Play

• The player holding the 2♣ leads the first trick.
• You must follow the suit that was led if you can; otherwise play anything. Playable cards are outlined in yellow, the rest are dimmed.
• No hearts or Q♠ may be discarded on the first trick (unless you have nothing else).
• Hearts can't be led until they are broken (a heart has been discarded) unless you hold only hearts.
• The highest card of the led suit wins the trick and leads next. There are no trumps.

Shooting the moon

Take all 13 hearts and the Q♠ and you score 0 while every opponent gets 26!
