About this game

New! You can play with friends or computer controlled AI bots, or both.

Advanced AI focuses first on bringing in new players to the game; pick up the game and just start playing. Training progresses quickly, and even the most experienced players might learn a thing or two. Each strategic decision is explained! See inside the thought process of a mature AI originally published in 1992 and updated in 2019.

To measure your progress, you will be training a puppy which will advance through its lessons as you learn Sheepshead (aka Schafkopf). Puppy raising tips come from 16 years of service-dog training experience.

This is a fun family table card game along the lines of other trick-taking games like Spades, Hearts, Euchre, etc.

Ratings and reviews

Game play is OK, AI seems pretty good most of the hands. Needs an "Undo" button, especially on discards. Please add an Undo feature. Sometimes legal partner selection suits don't show up as an option. Will not allow choice of a 10 for a partner when burying an Ace or other points. The dog training thing is distracting and unnecessary for game play, but it's free, so that the price to play. Better game play than other sheepshead games in play store.

Enjoy the app. Just lately sometimes I havent been able to choose cards for the blind. The app freezes. I'll try uninstalling and reinstalling, but I just recently had been able to increase the skill level and agressiveness of players, and Im afraid I'll lose that.

Good game but the past few months I keep getting taken to the app store due to some sort of ad even though I paid for no ads. Frustrating to pay but still have to deal with being taken to an app to install some random app even if I dont have to watch the ad.
