is the English version of "Belote Bridgee", the most popular partnership card game in France.
The game is appealing because it requires many skills such as reasoning, memory, and planning. As well, an element of luck is provided by the random distribution of cards to each player. It is suited for anyone who enjoys card games, especially players afraid of the complexity of Bridge but willing to take a step towards that game.
Some of the rules are common to the Bridge game: it is a partnership game for four players, each hand is divided into two major phases (the bidding and the play), players may use some conventions when bidding, trump is the suit of the highest bid, and a contract may be doubled and redoubled.
Yet, there are many differences too: it is played with a 32 card deck, the contract is committed for a number of points instead of a number of tricks, trump card rankings are different from the other suits, there is no dummy in the card play, and some card combinations can bring extra points.
32 Card Bridge provides an easy-to-use interface. It includes rules of the game, a tutorial, detailed hints when it is your turn to bid or play, a peek option to see the other players' hands, and more.
