Jasstat Pro
Read full descriptionHide full description
Jasstat Pro analyzes your Jass games — Chibre, Schieber or Mise — and turns your scoresheets into statistics. KEEPING SCORE Create a group, add your players, start a 2, 3 or 4-player game. Entering a turn takes just a few taps: the trump, one team's points — the other score is calculated automatically — and the announcements, as a simple value or in detail. Double Spades and Clubs are supported, Schieben included. FOLLOWING THE GAME The cumulative score, the difference and the goal stay on screen at all times. The chart shows turn-by-turn progression: points, announcements, and the gap between the two teams colored by who's leading. On the Lock Screen, a Live Activity keeps the scores in view for every player, on every device. UNDERSTANDING YOUR GAMES Every game gets a mastery rating from 0 to 100 per team: it measures how the game was played — result, pace, domination — not just the winner. Beyond that, statistics break down by group, team or player: win rate, streaks, records, favorite trumps, teammate compatibility matrix, group competitiveness. FINDING A GAME A dashboard summarizes your activity as soon as you open the app. Inside a group, search covers everything shown — teams, scores, announcements, dates, stakes — and the filter by number of players narrows the list. The summary recalculates live. PLAYING TOGETHER Share a group via iCloud, with edit or read-only rights. Every entry syncs within seconds to all participants — you can follow the same game from multiple devices. ON THE BIG SCREEN The Apple TV app mirrors a group's whole activity on your TV: games in progress, full history, statistics by group, team or player, a photo gallery and a chart — so the whole table can follow without leaning over an iPhone. SIRI AND SHORTCUTS Say “Replay the last game in Jasstat Pro” — with or without the group name: a new game starts with the same players and the same settings. Also ask for the statistics of a player, a team or a group and the state of the pot, over all time or over a period. Examples: “Stats for Marc in Jasstat Pro”, “Stats for the Friends group in Jasstat Pro”, “Pot balance in Jasstat Pro”, “Pot paid by Marc in Jasstat Pro”. The commands are also available in the Shortcuts app. SPOTLIGHT SEARCH On iOS 18 and later, your groups, players, teams and games can be found from the iPhone's search — name, score, date, statistics, pot. One tap opens the right game directly. The index stays on your device. ALSO INCLUDED • Photos attached to a game, a turn or a player • Per-group pot, with contributions and withdrawals • Full backup and restore, automatic monthly backup • French, German, Italian and English • Built-in user manual Jasstat Pro is free and fully functional: no feature is locked, no ads, no data collection. In-app purchases are entirely optional and simply support ongoing development. Thank you!
Zank Patience
Read full descriptionHide full description
Russian Bank is a competitive patience game for two players. It’s been known for more than 100 years under multiple names like Zank-Patience in the German book “Illustrirtes Buch der Patiencen, Breslau 1884/85” or Streitpatience and Schikanös–Patience. It is popular in France where it’s known as Crapette. It’s also played in multiple countries like North America or Britain where it’s named sometimes “Touch” or “Stop” because of its gameplay (when you make an illegal move, the opponent can call stop to prevent you from finishing your turn). In the Middle East it is known as Tonj, Tunj, Tonge or Tunge. This two-player game also needs two standard 52-card packs, one for each player. Usually people use decks with different backs because decks become mixed by playing cards on each other and you need to separate them for the next game. The objective is to be the first player to get rid of all the cards from your personal piles : your hand, waste and reserve piles. This is achieved by loading them to the foundations or tableau, or on your opponent’s reserve and waste piles.
