A human player and two computer players play as the skat partners.
You can play in 3 modes
Rule Skat: | follows the exact rules of the Deutscher Skatverband (DSkV) set in 1999-01-01 |
Variations Skat: | here deviations can be made, and common variations like German Kneipenskat can be played |
Schieberamsch: | follows a very popular (unofficial) variation of Skat called Ramsch (Schieberamsch if pass on is allowed) |
The program can keep up with experienced players and provide surprises.
The main intent, however, was to create a learning aid for Skat beginners. Several
additional cross-game options are therefore offered, including:
Breaking off and repetition of games
Undo/redo of tricks
Exposing the cards
Exchanging the cards or of the hand
Exchanging the skat stock
Exchanging the suits
Suggestions for possible games
Suggestions to discard the skat
Suggestions to play or follow the cards
Manipulation of tricks
Demonstration mode - the program as an automaton
