Knock Out Whist
---------------
By Ian Cumberlidge.
There are many variations to the standard game of Whist. Knock Out Whist is
my personal favourite and can normally be played with several players. My
version is a two player game, you against the computer.
I will not explain the rules of standard Whist as these are fairly well
known to any card player. I will however explain how Knock Out Whist
differs.
7 cards are dealt to each player, with the trump suit initially being
randomly chosen.
After the hand has been played, whoever has the most tricks can choose the
trump suit for the next hand. The next hand will have 1 card less than the
previous hand, ie 6 then 5 etc.
The game will continue until one of the players has no tricks after a hand
has been played.
Game Play.
The game is completely controlled using the mouse. To select a card to
play, simply move the mouse pointer over the card and the cards number will
highlight. Then click the left mouse button to play it.
Use the same procedure for selecting a trump card.
I think that's about it. The game was written in AMOS, should you be at all
interested. I would like to hear from you if you have any comments on the
game, or suggestions.
I hope you enjoy it.
