Spades 1.2
(revised)
by
Eric Brittain
Hello fellow Spades Fans!!! After a long break from writing games
for Java, I decided to come back and revise the code for Java Spades 1.2
to make it up-to-date with today's popular browsers. If you are unable
to use this new version, you can still play the old version by clicking
this link. The old version has been left as it was for many years
just for you.
For those of you who are ready to use the new version, read on.
The revised version of Spades works very similar to the old version.
You click to select a card and bid using a dialog box. No new features
have been added. Please try this version out and let me know if it
works for you. I have spent a fews days rewriting this game so I
hope it works for you.
Introduction
General Play for Spades
Traditionally, spades is played with four players (two on each team). Team
members jointly bid on the number of tricks (or "books") they can win.
Once the bid is in, the game begins.
General Play for Spades 1.2
Spades 1.2 is slightly different. There are four players but each person
bids and plays individually. Generally, all other rules apply.
How To Play
Playing Spades 1.2
Once the game loads, you will be asked for a bid. Bids are between 2 and
9 (You must bid atleast 2). After bidding, the game begins. (Special Note:
Spades is played ) Your computer opponents will
play their cards automatically. You select your cards by hitting the left
mouse button over the card you want. (Special Note: if you try to play
a card that is not legal, Spades 1.2 will do nothing).
Winning Spades 1.2
The winning score is 300. The game will end when one or more players have
reached 300. Good luck!
