Hearts

Avoid hearts — unless you can take them all

About Hearts

Hearts is a trick-avoidance card game. Players try to avoid taking heart cards and the queen of spades. But if you can capture every single one, you 'shoot the moon' and flip the scoring.

Objective

Have the lowest score when the game ends. Each heart is worth 1 point, the queen of spades is 13 points.

How Scorecard tracks Hearts

Each heart taken = 1 point. Queen of spades = 13 points. Shoot the moon (take all hearts + queen) = everyone else gets 26 points instead.

Configurable rules

End game mode
End after a point threshold is reached, or after a fixed number of rounds.
Renege penalty
Configure whether renege affects round scoring and how many points are transferred.
