Why it’s different

Spades you don’t have to squint at

A bid helper

"Your hand looks like about four tricks." Why? It lists the reasons: the aces, the guarded kings, the spades. Fewer and More change the bid, and Nil is suggested only for a safe hand. Always free.

Big, clear cards

Huge corner numbers in a typeface made for low vision, the cards you can play with a thick outline, and every card a big target. Large or Extra large cards, three looks and four-colour suits.

Always in words

The scores, bags, bids and tricks are always on screen, and the status line says what happened and what to do now. It works with TalkBack, or reads every bid and card aloud if you like.

Friendly, fair players

Winnie is your partner; Desmond and Nell play against you, at Easy, Normal or Sharp. They decide only from what they can see, and every shuffle is fair.

No rush

No clock and no countdowns. The others wait for you and play at a readable pace, and after your card they pause long enough for Undo.

How it plays

Sunroom Spades is partnership Spades, the classic trick-taking card game, made big and clear. You and your partner Winnie play against Desmond and Nell. Each of you bids how many tricks you can win, and your team scores if you win at least as many as you bid together. Spades always beat the other suits.

The bid helper counts your hand for you and says why, so you're never guessing in the dark. On your turn the cards you can play are outlined, and the status line says what to do in plain words: "Hearts were led, so play one of yours." When you're not sure, a hint names the best card and the reason.

There are three looks to choose from: a calm charcoal table, light Daylight for a bright room, and black-and-white Night for the strongest contrast. Nothing is timed, and your game is saved after every card.

Tips

How to play well

  1. Count your sure tricks

    Aces, kings with another card of their suit, and spades beyond your third usually win tricks. The bid helper counts them for you.

  2. Help your partner

    If Winnie is already winning a trick, play a low card and save your better ones.

  3. Mind the bags

    Once your team has made its bid, extra tricks become bags, and every ten bags cost 100 points. Duck when you can.

  4. Not sure? Ask

    Tap Hint and the game says which card it would play, and why.

Questions

Asked and answered

Is Sunroom Spades free? Are there ads?

Yes, it's free to play in your browser. There are never ads during a game and no banners. Your first ten games have no ads at all; after that an ad may appear between games, at most once every ten games and never twice within five minutes. Three hints in each hand are free; after that, a hint asks if you'd like to watch a short ad for another, and you can always say no. The bid helper and Undo are always free.

Who do I play with?

Winnie is your partner, sitting opposite. Desmond and Nell play against you. You can choose how well they all play.

How long is a game?

The first team to 300 points wins, or 200 for a shorter game. Each hand is 13 tricks.

Do the other players cheat?

No. They decide only from their own cards and what anyone at the table could see, and every shuffle is fair.

Will I lose my game if I leave?

No. Your game is saved after every card, so you can close the page or take a call and carry on later.
