About the application:

Spades Spades or Call Break is a 4 users strategic card mini game played with 52-deck of cards. Users are the dealer-- each user takes turns to deal the cards. It is a turn based mini game. The champion is decided after 5 rounds. The objective of the mini game is to receive as a lot of tricks (points) as possible in each round. You must follow suit and play the highest card to victory a trick. And, SPADE is the trump suit of this tas mini game. A round starts once everyone gets 13 cards each and they “Call (Bid)” the number of tricks they can take in the round. The user with the maximum points at the end of the 5 rounds wins the game. Deal Any user may deal first: subsequently the turn to deal passes to the right. The dealer deals out all the cards, one at a time with face down, so that each user has 13 cards. The users pick up their cards and look at them. Bidding Starting with the user to dealer's right, and continuing clockwise round the table, ending with the dealer, each user calls a number, which must be at least 1. (The maximum sensible call is 8.) This call represents the number of tricks which the user undertakes to victory. In this mini game the tricks bid are known as "calls". How To Play The user to dealer's right leads to the first trick, and subsequently the champion of each trick leads to the next. Any card may be led, and the another three users must follow suit if they can. A user who cannot follow suit must trump with a spade, provided that this spade is high enough to beat any spades already in the trick. A user who has no cards of the suit led and no spades high enough to head the trick may play any card. The trick is won by the user of the highest spade in it, or if it includes no spade, by the user of the highest card of the suit that was led. A user who is able to play a card of the suit that was led is not obliged to head the trick. This also applies when spades are led: users may play higher or lower spades as they wish. A user who has no cards of a suit is said to be "off" that suit. If is off the suit that was led, and there are no spades in the trick yet, the user must play a spade if possible. If there is already a spade in the trick, the user who is "off" the led suit must play a higher spade if possible. If the user only has lower spades, he or she can "waste" one of these spades to avoid taking an unwanted trick later, or can throw a card of other suit. Scoring To succeed, a user must victory the number of tricks called, or one more trick than the call. If a user succeeds, the number called is added to his or her cumulative score. Otherwise the number called is subtracted. After the latest round, champion will be declared who wins all mini games. For example, a user who calls 4 must victory 4 or more tricks to succeed, and in this case gains 4 points. Winning 3 or fewer tricks counts as a loss, and the user loses 4 points.
