No ads, no tracking, no subscriptions. Spades is a trick-taking card game that can be played with 3 players solo, 4 players solo, or 4 players with partners (2 teams of 2). A standard 52-card deck is dealt, then players bid the number of tricks they can take. The goal is to take as many tricks as were bid. When playing with partners, North/South is one team, West/East is the other, and teammates' bids and tricks are combined, so one player's underbid can compensate for his teammate's overbid. This app allows you to configure number of players and teams, the appearance of the table and cards, rules about nil bids and when spades can be lead. There are instructions included in the app, as well as a setting to make your robot opponents less aggressive or more aggressive. Spades Gold edition has no advertising and no in-app purchases. It includes several card back and tabletop options that are not available in the ad-supported edition. ## Key features - 3 or 4 player modes - Solo or partner play - Customizable table and card appearance - Adjustable nil bid rules - Configurable spade lead rules - Adjustable AI aggression ## Chart rankings - #80 in Top Paid · Casino (US App Store) ## Recent user reviews (10 of 19) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/spades-plus/id904702317/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Meh! *2026-02-21, version 26.0.1* This app was recently updated and IMO the update was a step backwards. Just because you can make changes doesn’t necessarily mean you should. I preferred it the way it was before. I will continue to play it but I’m not happy. Early today I missed my bid and received a-4586 points for 45 bids missed! Kind of funny if not so frustrating Please fix this app. Still not “fixed” The latest incident. When starting a new game my opponents all bid. Then the cards were dealt and I had yet to bid. Here I am again. Still the same issues ### 3/5 — Improvement *2026-01-04, version 26.0.1* North frequently plays stupid when south bids nil ### 1/5 — Meh! *2025-12-21* This app was recently updated and IMO the update was a step backwards.

I will continue to play it but I’m not happy. ### 2/5 — Almost.... *2025-04-14, version 6.7.0* I was really liking this game and would have given it five stars until my partner could have saved me from taking a trick on a hand which I bid nil then played the card the very next hand and took that trick! ### 5/5 — Great Game *2024-03-22* Just recently the game has begun to spontaneously open game settings. At first I thought I was doing something but it continues. I have the latest update and a reboot was no help. Other than that I enjoy the game. ### 5/5 — Collusion *2023-06-04, version 6.3.3* When I play a 3 way game, your auto players collude. The West player - and on occasion the East - will not allow me to cause East to be caught on a Nil bid. This is quite unfair. It is apparent they count cards, as they feed each other what is needed. Please correct this. ### 5/5 — Terrific game. *2023-01-20, version 6.3.3* Wonderful choices of backgrounds and card backs. Also you can choose 3 or 4 players, single or teams. Check this game out! Buy the no-ad version. Worth the money! Best Spades Gold out there!💖 ### 5/5 — Go for the gold *2021-04-16, version 6.0.3* If you play this game very much, it is well worth the three dollars to avoid the ads. ## Frequently asked questions about Spades+ ### What is Spades+?
