Hossie — A Trick-Taking Card Game Hossie is a snappy, four-player, two-versus-two trick-taking card game. Six cards, six tricks, one bold call. Race your partner to 50 points and outsmart your opponents through clever bidding and tight card play. What makes Hossie special • A compact 24-card deck — quick to deal, fast to finish, deep to master. • A full bidding ladder, from a cautious 1 trick all the way up to a heroic 4× Hossie. • Three modes per round: High, Low, or Jack-of-a-suit (with right-bower and left-bower mechanics). • Sit-your-partner Hossie contracts with optional pre-trick card swaps for huge swings. • Strong on-device AI so you can play any time, anywhere — no internet required. Play how you like • Solo against bots for a quick round on the go. • Local multiplayer with friends in the same room over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth — no accounts, no setup. • Online private rooms with friends anywhere. Share a code, sit down, deal. • Mix and match — fill empty seats with bots whenever you don't have four humans. Built for iOS • Native SwiftUI design that looks at home on iPhone and iPad. • Full English and Simplified Chinese (简体中文) localization, switchable on the fly. • Profile avatars, custom names, and Quick Chat taunts to bring the table to life. • A built-in tutorial with diagrams plus a Must-Win Lab to study solid-suit hands. • Seasonal themes you can unlock with redeem codes throughout the year. Whether you grew up playing Hossie at the kitchen table or you're brand new to trick-taking games, Hossie's clean rules and short matches make it easy to pick up and hard to put down. Deal in. Bid bold. Take the trick.
