About this game

Meet the card game that's challenging, habit-forming and loads of fun! It's Wizard: a unique game with a 60 card deck!

The rules are simple and easy to learn... mastering the strategy is the real challenge. One card is dealt to each player on the first round, two cards on the second, and so on. Players bid the number of tricks they think they will win. Make the exact number of tricks bid and you win points; too many or too few and you lose points. The Wizard and Jester cards add a "wild card" element to the strategy.

Ratings and reviews

Very rudimentary. No frills here, graphics are fine, most of the options are under 'rules' which is confusing, you can't mix and match AI levels and no online matchmaking. Cannot play with other than 3 AI players. Not quite what I would expect from a premium game but it works, and the game itself is fun and challenging.

For those who know the game this is a good copy of it. The rule customization is excellent and I like the option to include sounds. However, the game is stuck on 4 players. There is no option for 3, 5 or 6 player rounds that I can find. Also the random number generator is rigged, sometimes badly. For example, on a 6 card deal, I just had one of the computer players bid and make 6 with a hand of the top 2 trump and all 4 wizards!

First off, the base game is there. This app is very flawed, which I'd overlook if it was free but they charge money for it and it is missing common sense features, like just having an indicator of who the dealer is. The avatar selection is very limited. It's sloppy and cheap. On top of that the game constantly crashes when trying to play multi-player. It's only good for playing against the AI as practice. I want them to fix it, because now I'm obsessed with wizard. Day and night, cannot stop.
