Heartline Trick Table

About Heartline Trick Table

Take a seat at the table and play Hearts the way it's meant to be played — four players, thirteen tricks, and one simple goal: avoid the penalty cards.

Heartline Trick Table is a complete, offline trick-taking card game. You play South against three AI opponents — West, North, and East — through a full deck dealt straight into your hand every round. No card-passing gimmicks, no interruptions, just clean, classic Hearts.

HOW IT PLAYS
• Standard 52-card deck, 13 cards to every player, no passing phase.
• Whoever holds the 2 of clubs opens the round with that exact card.
• Follow suit when you can — only play off-suit once you're void in the led suit.
• Hearts can't be led until one has been "broken" earlier in the round (or your hand is nothing but hearts).
• Every heart is worth 1 penalty point; the Queen of Spades is worth 13. Whoever wins the trick takes the points.
• Capture every single penalty card in one round and you "shoot the moon" — an instant swap that scores you 0 and everyone else 26.
• Play continues, round after round, until someone reaches 100 points. Lowest score wins the match.

WHAT'S INSIDE
• PLAY — tap-to-play trick-taking against 3 AI opponents that follow suit properly, duck dangerous tricks when they can, and dump their most dangerous cards when they can't. See the live trick laid out at the center of the table and a running score table across every round you've played.
• STATS — rounds won, best round score, moon shots, win streaks, and matches won, all tracked locally on your device.
• LEARN — a plain-English walkthrough of the rules plus a "must you follow suit?" quiz to sharpen your instincts.
• AWARDS — thirteen unlockable milestones, from your first trick to becoming a full Grand Champion.
• RULES — the complete reference ruleset in one scrollable page, whenever you need a reminder mid-game.

WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT
• Genuine trick-taking strategy — reading the table, ducking dangerous tricks, and timing your discards all matter.
• A distinctive midnight-plum and ember-crimson table, custom hand-drawn card faces, and quiet haptic feedback on every trick, broken heart, moon shot, and round end.
• Fully offline. No ads, no accounts, no in-app purchases, no network permission at all — and this is a skill game with pure win/loss tracking only: no betting, no chips, no wagering of any kind, real or virtual.

Heartline Trick Table is built for anyone who grew up playing Hearts around a kitchen table and wants that same game, done properly, in their pocket.
