The goal of Spades is to reach 500 points with your team. Players sitting opposite each other play as a team. The game begins with a round of bidding. You try to predict the number of "tricks", or turns, you will win. The combined bids of two partners make a "contract". Once the bidding is completed, the partners must fulfill their contract, not the individual bids. You make a contract by winning at least a contracted number of tricks. A bid of Nil means the player will try not to win any tricks. The "trump" (or highest value) suit is always Spades. Each contracted trick is worth 10 points. If you fail to fulfill the contract, a penalty is the entire value of that contract. Each overtrick, or taking more than you bid, is worth 1 point and also earns you one "bag". Every set of 10 "bags" incurs a 100-point penalty. Winning a Nil bid is worth 100 points, failing a Nil bid is penalized by 100 points.

Ratings and reviews

SPADES!!! i love it! It's a swell game and a good way to pass the time waiting for, or riding, a city bus. Very realistic too. The only reason i don't give it 5 stars is sometimes it shuts down in the middle of a game for no good reason

I've now played hundreds of hands on the app. The computer generated player on your team continually make bad plays throwing the hands. I've seen many 10 yr old kid's play better spades. I wish I could get a refund but luckily it was only $3.

I generally like this game but, as usual for games with an AI partner, he's a moron. He will sandbag you. In real life you rarely lose 100 points for sandbagging. In this game, it happens AT LEAST once during your game. It was too easy to run nil. Recently, nil play had improved. Opponents would try to catch you with a trick. BUT now your partner will trump a trick with the Ace of spades and you're stuck if you have a high Spade to get rid of. 99% of time King spades is in the hand with the Ace
