Teri

Teri is a four-player trick-taking card game played in fixed partnerships — you and the player across from you against the other two. Every round starts with the bidding. Call how many of the thirteen tricks your side will take, opening at seven and climbing from there, or pass. Win the bidding and you name trump and lead the first card, which is an advantage and a target at the same time. Then comes the part that makes Teri its own game: points are bad. Make your bid and the points go to the other team. Fall short and your own side takes double what you called. The first team to reach fifty-two points loses, so every round is a decision about how much you are willing to promise. PLAY WITH PEOPLE YOU KNOW Create a private table and share the Game ID, and your friends drop straight into the seats you chose. Add a friend from any table you have played at, form a party, and stay together into the next match. OR JUST START PLAYING Quick match puts you at a table in seconds. Any seat nobody takes is filled by a bot, so a game always starts — and you can fill a private table entirely with bots if you would rather learn the bidding on your own first. BUILT FOR PHONE AND IPAD The table scales to the screen you are on, from a phone in one hand to a full-size iPad. COSMETICS ONLY Coins are earned by playing and by finishing daily and weekly tasks. They buy avatars, table backgrounds and titles — appearance, nothing else. Coins cannot be purchased, there is no real-money currency, and nothing you can buy affects a single card. A TABLE WORTH SITTING AT Aliases are filtered and moderated. Any player can be reported or blocked from their seat during a game or from your friends list, and a blocked player is never matched with you again. Teri is a game of counting, holding your nerve, and knowing when the honest bid is the one you do not make.
