The main object of the game is to have the fewest points at the end of the game. In Hearts, you will be playing against three computer-controlled opponents (named Left, Across, and Right.) You want to take as few points as possible. Each Heart is worth 1 point, and the Queen of Spades is worth 13 points. The rest of the cards have no point value. ou start the game by passing three cards. In the first hand, you pass to the left; in the second hand, you pass to the right; in the third hand you pass across; and in the fourth hand, there is no passing. The cycle then repeats, until the game ends.

Once passing is complete, the player with the 2 of Clubs leads. The other players, in clockwise order, must play a card of the suit which was led, if possible. If you are void in a suit, you may play any card, although no points cards (Hearts, or the Queen of Spades) can be played on the first trick. The person who played the highest card of the suit that was led wins the trick. The person who takes the trick leads for the next trick. It is illegal to lead a heart until a heart has been played. |
