Reviews: What People Think About Spades - Expert AI

Rating: 4/5
I like this game a lot. Pretty fast moving. But it needs to have a way to save one’s statistics. Otherwise I’d have rated it 5 stars.

The AI partner often plays against you and causes you to lose. For example, if the AI is the last one to play on a trick, and you have played the highest card, instead of playing a lower card and letting you take the trick, saving its higher card to win another trick, it will often play the higher card or trump you to win that trick. This undermines the team because you could have won two tricks, but it played against you and you only won one. This often keeps you from making bid when you could have, if it had not played against you. Also, when you bid nill, the AI will often lead a trick with the lowest card it has instead of a higher card, which costs you the nill bid. For example, the AI leads with a 3 of clubs, East and West play the 2 and 4 of clubs, and you have to throw whatever club is in your hand and it's obviously going to be higher and you lose the nill bid on a 5 of clubs. Then the next hand the AI throws a higher card which would have saved the nill bid had it lead with that. Overall, it's a very fun game, and hopefully the AI can learn to understand strategy and teamwork. That will make it even more fun!

Hint to doing well - always plan on getting 2 additional tricks to whatever you are bidding when your AI partner is going nil. Your AI partner will at times lead small to cover your nil - for no reason, get used to that, but if you just hit the step-back, it will often see the error if its way and re-lead with a strong card. The AI opponents often place way too much value on getting you to take extra tricks - don’t worry about it - just protect your partner’s nil and you’ll be fine.
