What Makes Hearts Mobile Stand Out
Play a captivating game of Hearts. To win you must avoid getting the scoring cards. Or you can Shoot the Moon. The game is over when one of the four players gains more or exactly 100 points. You win if you have the smallest score. Though chance is involved you can still make the best of your cards and win.
FEATURES
- Easy to use and play
- Advanced AI players
- 3 Difficulty Levels
- Balanced rules
- Designed for both Tablets and Phones
TIPS
- You can keep low and try to earn the lowest score by avoiding cards of hearts and especially by avoiding the 13-points Queen of Spades.
- Another strategy is to go big and take all the hearts and the Queen of Spades, in which case you "Shoot the Moon". It will either take 26 points away or add 26 points to all your opponents. When at least one player goes over or reaches 100 points the game is over.
- The scoring cards are the cards of hearts, each worth 1 point, and the Queen of Spades, worth 13 points. Whoever plays the highest card of the suit that started the trick collects the trick. The value of the cards grows in this order 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King and Ace.
- 13 cards are dealt to each player. Before every hand, each player has to choose 3 cards and pass them to another player with one exception. For every fourth hand no cards are passed. The player holding the 2 of clubs must lead to begin the first trick.
- Players must follow suit. If you don't have a card of the suit which started the trick you can place any card.
- Players can start tricks with a card from any suit, with one exception: the cards of hearts. Placing a card of hearts in the trick for the first time is called breaking the hearts. Once the hearts are broken you can start a trick with a card of hearts.
- Sometimes you can collect all the scoring cards and thus you shoot the moon. In most cases you will receive 0 points and the others will each receive 26 points.
- However, if by adding 26 points to other players they gain more than 100 points, but you still lose, another solution is preferred. In this case 26 points will be subtracted from your score and all the other players will keep their scores.
- By default the set difficulty is easy. But you can change it from the main menu. To enter the main menu and to also pause the game just press on the button in the top left corner of the screen. You can change it from easy to medium, from medium to hard or from hard to easy. And the next time when you play a new hand, the AI will employ better strategies or not depending on your preferred difficulty level.

Community Insight:
We cant review something that forces acceptance of an agreement just to try the game.
Plays as expected; a bit sluggish on our phone. The bots (NPCs) are kind of dim-witted, but we want to play offline just to unwind, so thats tolerable. Would be nice to be able to check the score in the middle of a hand, and would be nice to have some fanfare when someone shoots the moon. Also on our five star list would be the ability to end the hand once all points have been played. This game has the advantage over the one we just deleted in that the ads it runs are clean.
Great game play it daily one of the best.
We enjoyed this app until we played a game with an unlikely and rather devious play. It was a hold hand and we were dealt two spades including the ace. On the second spade trick, the hand to our right played the queen. In a real game, that would happen if they had only been dealt two spades also. On the last hand of the game, that hand played the jack of spades. We don't mind losing a game or two, especially under normal game circumstances. But when the hand to our right has X-Ray vision and knows our hand, it isn't much fun. Oh well, it's off to find a well-engineered hearts app….because this game isn't it.
Good app. Love this game. No issues so far.
Top and most definitely the Hearts game out there.
Best one out there, try it, we know you will like it.
