Hearts Deluxe

Black Lady is an American adaptation of the classic Hearts card game, designed for three to six players. Originating in the early 20th century, it derives its name from the highest penalty card in the deck, the Queen of Spades or Black Lady. Hearts encompasses a group of card games with varying rules, known by different names in different countries such as American Hearts, Black Lady Hearts, Black Widow, and Rickety Kate in Australia.

This particular version caters to the most popular American variation of the Hearts game for four players, including the Omnibus variation and Moons variations.

The game is available for smartphones and tablets, featuring computer opponents (AI) for seamless gameplay that can be paused at any time without needing an internet connection. Hearts Deluxe offers a hassle-free gaming experience without disruptive in-game advertisements.

Key features of Hearts for Android from IGC Mobile:

• Modern game interface in landscape mode
• Large, bright, clear cards
• Three card decks with distinct designs
• Rules variations such as “Shoot the Moon” and “Omnibus”
• Customizable background, avatars, and players' names
• Support for both phones and tablets

The game follows traditional Hearts rules where players accumulate points based on the cards they capture, with heart cards each worth one point and the Queen of Spades worth 13 points. The addition of the Omnibus option introduces a significant bonus card - the Jack of Diamonds - which carries a penalty-reducing value of -10 points.

Incorporating strategic gameplay elements, achieving “Shoot the Moon” entails winning a round by collecting all heart cards, the Queen of Spades, and optionally the Jack of Diamonds under the “Omnibus” setting.

A game continues until one player reaches 100 points, with shorter and longer versions also available with point limits of 50 and 150 respectively. The ultimate victor is the player with the lowest score.
