Used to play Rook with friends and family - this game version (with some of my own rules) is as close to how we played! Love it! I love that there is the option for adding your own twists and character names. Yes, sometimes the AI plays a "stupid" move (like playing a 14 (second highest point card) on the oponent's 1 (Highest point excluding the Rook/BlackBird) even when the next turn they play a non-point card in the same color). But I thoroughly enjoy the game š. FYI- I like playing offline.

Updates : After playing for a several weeks, I've found some logic issues w/ the computer play. It sometimes play 14's randomly on already "lost" plays in other suits. Have also seen it play points on losing stacks, while having other options. Also, my partner just bid 90 on a hand where I don't think he had a card over 10 and had fewer trumps than one of our opponents....not good. š¤Ø Still better than most options, but dropping my rating, because logic just doesn't seem completely worked out.

No online multiplayer is disappointing. Game is still fun. Automated partner is next to useless... Update: After playing for about a month, I'd like to give an update. There is no redeal function. Not sure how random the game actually is, seems like every time I pass on the bid, the other team seems to take every trick. Also pertaining to randomized dealing, the Blackbird (Rook) card is dealt to me maybe 10% of the time. Seems like player to my left or my partner always has the Blackbird.
