## What is Contrée?

Belote Contrée, also known as Coinche, the classic French trick-taking card game, with the real rules. Free to play, solo offline against the computer or online with friends. You (South) and your partner (North) face two opponents: bid, double, redouble and make your contract.

NEW TO BELOTE? A TUTORIAL TO LEARN
Ten short, interactive lessons with real cards: trumps, bidding, following suit, ruffing, overtrumping, helping your partner, belote and the last trick. Every answer is explained, then you move straight on to a first game in Easy mode.

THE FULL RULES
• Bidding from 80 to 160, then Capot (250), with a choice of trump suit.
• Contre, or double (×2), and Surcontre, or redouble (×4).
• Strict play obligations: follow suit, ruff, and overtrump when required.
• Belote and Rebelote (King and Queen of trumps): +20 points, flagged on screen.
• Last-trick bonus, scoring to 162, standard order and values (Jack 20, Nine 14, Ace 11, Ten 10).

PLAY SOLO AGAINST THE AI, NO INTERNET NEEDED
• Easy: perfect for learning Coinche or getting back into it.
• Normal: an even match, like a game at the local café.
• Hard: the AI remembers every card played, tracks the master cards and draws trumps.
Solo play works fully offline: on the train, on a plane, anywhere.

PLAY ONLINE, FOUR-HANDED
Quick match with players from around the world, or a private game with friends using a shareable code, through Game Center. Empty seats are played by the computer, and if someone leaves the table a bot steps in: the game never stops. No chat: just play.

BUILT FOR COMFORT
• Adjustable target score: 500, 1000 or 1500 points.
• Permanent info bar: current trump and each team's trick points.
• Automatic save: pick your game back up whenever you like.
• Statistics, a complete rules screen, sound and haptics (both optional).
• Vector card art, crisp on every screen.
• Fully accessible with VoiceOver.

MAKE THE TABLE YOURS
Earn coins every game and spend them in the shop: 16 card backs, 7 table felts and 6 card styles: three fully illustrated decks (French Court, Menagerie, Art Deco), four colors, and a large index for easy reading. At the end of a game, an optional video doubles the coins you just won. Coin packs are also available as in-app purchases.

FREE, NO ACCOUNT, NO BANNER
Contrée is free and needs no account. There are no banner ads: the game is funded by an ad between some rounds, never while you are playing your cards. Rather do without? The one-time "Ad-free" in-app purchase removes the between-round ads for good. You can also watch a video to play ad-free for 30 minutes.

### 3/5 — Dommage

*2026-10-06*

Une des rares appli fluide cependant les cartes sont d’une trop faible definition on confond les carreaux avec les cœurs et les pisues avec les trèfles :-( dommage

**Developer response:** Bonjour, et merci beaucoup pour votre message et pour le compliment sur la fluidité du jeu !
J'ai agrandi les visuels sur la prochaine version du jeu qui devrait arriver d'ici quelques jours .
J'espère que le correctif vous conviendras. Si besoin n'hésitez pas à me contacter à appcraft31@gmail.com. 
Bonne partie !
