Rook is currently available to be played online in one main place. Here at rook game , we do not actually participate in this online community for one main reason. This online rook game does not play the style of rook we like. The main difference is they play with rook being the highest trump. I know the driving force of Rook and doing things with your kids!
There are certainly many people asking for a place to play Rook online. My home town adopted its own rules. We play the rook as the lowest trump and is worth The rook being the lowest trump makes for interesting strategies.
Last trick takes the nest. They had dwindled away the past few years but seem to be making a comeback here. Several schools are using them for fund raisers. Just played in one last night and it had 31 teams.
Play to with a 40 minute time limit each game. If time expires before a team reaches , the hand being played is finished and the team ahead at that time is the winner. I have played without the 1s before but around here with the 1s is what is always played in tournaments.
Just adding my thoughts. I grew up with the adults playing Rook at any small or large family gathering. I, and some of my cousins, would often take a look at all 4 hands to try to understand.
The kids did not always have a poker face, and did know the Rook was important. We played with set partners, all the cards, Rook was the top card. The kitty could not have point cards in it. So each hand was points. And we played to points. Bidding on the kitty started at , and once you pass you could not bid again for that hand.
Bidding could increase at intervals of 5. Widow, Naming Trump: The high bidder collects the 5 widow cards which are shown to all players , names a trump suit for the hand, and discards 5 cards from her hand not shown to the other players. The 5 discards can include point cards which will, depending on your settings, go to either the high bidder or the winner of the last trick. Tricks: The dealer or the high bidder, you can change this leads the first trick.
Play proceeds to the left until all 4 players have played one card. Players follow suit unless they are out of that suit or play the Rook card to win a trick with lots of points.
If a player cannot follow suit, any card may be played. If there were no trump cards played on a trick, high card in the lead suit wins the trick. If trump cards were played on the trick, the highest trump card wins the trick.
The trick winner pulls in the cards adds them to his won tricks pile , and leads the next trick. The Rook card is the highest card of the trump suit. The ranking of cards from high to low is Rook Hand results: Both teams count the points from their won tricks piles: Rook card is worth 20; 14 and 10 cards are worth 10 each; 5 cards are worth 5. The other cards count nothing. If the bidding team did not score enough points to cover its bid, its score decreases by the bid amount.
Winning: First team to points or to be points ahead wins the game. A paid Rook Gold app with no ads is also available on the App Store. The cards are actual random which is very refreshing to see in a phone game.
No rigging it to keep you addicted. I wish you could adjust the settings more. It would be nice to be able to play with the full deck instead of just and also to play without the rook card and a four-card kitty instead. Also to be able to start the bidding lower. Overall awesome game.
This game is only playable on the highest difficulty, but that is when the AI flaws truly manifest. By not playing a 14 at this point one is almost absolutely guaranteed to lose it verses absolutely winning the hand.
