Spades vs Fraction War

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.

This war game helps players compare fractions while having fun! The beginner game uses halves, fourths, and eighths. The easy level includes thirds and sixths, the medium game adds in fifths and tenths, and the hardest game has percents along with all the fractions. The object of the game is to win all the cards from “Dr. Cotter”, the developer of this favorite game from the RightStart Math program. Tap on your deck to start the game, then tap on the greater value card and that player takes the cards. If the two cards are the same, it’s a war! If a wrong card is chosen, the linear fraction chart will pulse, indicating there is an error. The fraction chart may be enlarged to help with comparing the values. The winner is the player with all the cards at the end of the game. This game will provide hours of fun fraction practice.
