Spades: No Ads is classic partnership Spades - the trick-taking card game you already know - free to play offline on iPhone and iPad. Bid your hand, take your tricks, and keep an eye on your bags. No ads, no internet needed.
Whether you have played Spades your whole life or you are still working out when to bid nil, there is a seat at this table: fair AI partners and opponents, hints from your own seat whenever you want one, and the house rules set the way your table plays them.
FAIR AI PARTNERS AND OPPONENTS
Three difficulty levels - Easy, Normal and Hard - and every one of them plays the hand it was dealt, seeing the same thirteen cards you see and the same tricks on the table. No stacked deals, and no rubber-banding when you pull ahead. Hard bids with the bag count in mind, so it knows when your side is one overtrick from the ten-bag penalty.
LEARN THE HAND, PLAY IT BETTER
• Bid Hint - what the Hard AI would bid from your seat, and why
• Play Hint - the same for the card in front of you, with one line of reasoning
• Unplayed Cards - lay out every card still unaccounted for
• Play Log - every completed trick of the hand, and who took it
• Last Trick - a free look back any time, just tap the middle of the table
• Undo a card you wish you had back
• Replay Hand and take the deal again from the top
• Statistics for every game you play, kept on your device
YOUR RULES, YOUR TABLE
• Play to 250, 500 or 750
• Bid nil for 100, or go blind nil before you look at your hand for 200
• Turn nil bids off entirely if that is how your table plays
• Standard Hoyle scoring, full bag tracking, the ten-bag penalty
• Slow, normal or fast card animation
• Confirm Before Playing, for when the phone is in one hand
• Card backs, table felts and card faces, previewed together on a live table
PICK IT UP ANYWHERE
• Plays completely offline - on a plane, on the subway, anywhere
• Autosaves after every single card, so a phone call never costs you a hand
