Spades is a card game for 4 players. Players sitting across from each other are partners on the same team. The object of this online card game version of Spades is to be the first team to score 500 points.
At the start of the round, each player is dealt 13 cards. Select 1 card from your hand, and then click on the "Pass" button to pass the card to your partner. You will receive 1 card that your partner has passed to you.
Estimate how many tricks you can take during this round. A trick is a group of 4 cards, 1 card from each player. Your bid and your partner's bid are added together, and this is the number of tricks that your team must take.
Now the play begins. The player to the left of the dealer plays a card.
Card game play continues clockwise. When it is your turn, the blue "Play" prompt will appear above your cards. Double-click on a white card to play it. You must play a card of the same suit as the first card if you can. If you don't have any cards in the suit that was led, you can play any card.
Spades are always trump, meaning that they outrank all other suits. When each player has played a card, the person who played the highest Spade wins these cards for his or her team. This is called winning a trick. If no trump was played, the person who played the highest card in the suit that was led wins the trick. Aces are the highest card.
The player who won the trick now leads a card. Play continues in this manner until all 4 players have played all of their cards.More Games Like Spades
Here are some additional pointers designed to help you become a more advanced Spades player.
In this online card game, you cannot lead a Spade until Spades have been BROKEN. Spades are broken when someone plays a Spade because they did not have any cards in the suit that was led.
Note: If Spades have not been broken, you may lead Spades if you have no other suits in your hand.
The 2s are treated as the highest Spades. Thus, the order of Spades, from highest to lowest, is as follows: 2 of Hearts, 2 of Clubs, 2 of Diamonds, 2 of Spades, Ace of Spades, King of Spades, and so forth, with the 3 of Spades as the lowest Spade. If you select this option, a "2" icon will appear above your table on the Table Selection screen.
You cannot lead a Spade until someone has played a Spade on another trick. The only exception to this card game rule is if you have no other cards in your hand.
On the first trick, if you cannot follow suit, you can trump the trick with a Spade.
