Truco Bravo: Brazilian truco

Real Brazilian truco, São Paulo style, at a corner bar table: the turned card, trumps that change every hand, 12 points, the hand of eleven and the iron hand.

You play as a pair with Tonhão against Dona Cida and Old Zé, or one on one against Biu. Each of them has a face, a manner and a set of tells.

The opponents never see your hand. They imagine what you might be holding from the cards already on the table and from who called truco, and decide from there. At the end of every hand, one tap shows everyone's cards so you can check.

On the fierce level, the table learns how you play: if you call truco every hand, they start calling you; if you only call with good cards, they start folding.

At the table:
• Truco, six, nine and twelve, with accept, fold and raise.
• Signals with your partner: a wink is the zap, raised eyebrows are hearts, a crooked mouth is spades, the tongue is diamonds. Opponents signal each other too, and if you are watching you can catch them.
• Six truco games: São Paulo, Minas Gerais, gaúcho, Argentine, Uruguayan and Valencian truc, with envido and flor where the rules call for them.
• Face down cards from the second trick on.
• Three levels: regular, partner and fierce.
• A deck drawn for phone screens, the classic deck and the Spanish deck used in gaúcho and Argentine truco.
• Voices at the table: whoever calls shouts truco, whoever answers accepts or folds out loud, and the crowd talks about the game.
• Won tricks stay stacked in front of whoever took them, like at a real table.
• Your match is saved: close the app and come back to the same score.
• 13 languages: English, Portuguese, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Russian, Polish, Turkish, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean and Traditional Chinese.

No ads. Plays offline: the game only talks to Google Play to check and make purchases and, once, to ask for a rating.

The in-game shop has two extra tables, the Beach kiosk on the sand and the TV-style Championship, and three tips for anyone who wants to support the game. No purchase changes the cards or the opponents' strength.
