Sheepshead

This Sheepshead app lets you play three-, four-, or five-handed games against AI opponents anytime. Sheepshead, a trick-taking card game, is playable here in a single-player mode. The game uses a 32-card deck (7-8-9-10-J-Q-K-A in four suits).

Game Features

• Multiple Player Modes: Supports three-, four-, and five-handed games.
• Tournaments: Compete in ten-hand tournaments to become the high scorer.
• Partnership Variations: Includes options for Ace partner (allowing calls of unknowns, 10s, or going alone), Jack of Diamonds, and Call-up-next-Jack (enabled by default, disableable in options). Note that in three- and four-handed play, the picker has no partner.
• Four All-Pass Scoring Styles: Choose from Leasters, Doublers, Showdowns (lowest score wins, based on trump cards in hand: Q=3, J=2, others=1 point), or No Selection (dealer forced to pick).
• Scoring Options: Select either "Double on the bump" (default) or "Single on the bump" scoring.
• Knocking: Enable or disable knocking (also known as rapping or cracking) in the options menu.
• Statistics Tracking: Monitor your game statistics, including wins, tricks taken, and times picked.
• Google Games Integration: Includes leaderboards ("High Score") and achievements based on game score and tricks taken. Disable automated sign-in in App Settings.

Double Tap to Play

Double-tapping to play a card is supported (must be enabled in the options menu). Tapping once selects a card; tapping again plays it. This allows for easy correction of accidental selections.
