First team to 1,500 points wins. You and your partner (North) play against two AI opponents across multiple rounds. Each round has 8 tricks worth a total of 162 card points.
Before each round, players bid to choose the trump suit or pass. The caller's team must score more trick points than the opponents — if they fail, all 162 points go to the other team (the Pit).
You must follow suit. If following trump, you must beat the highest trump in the trick if you can. If void of the led suit, you must trump and must overtrump existing trump — unless your partner is already winning. The trick winner leads next.
Sequences of 3+ cards in a suit score bonus points: 3-card run = 20, 4-card = 50, full marriage (K+Q of trump) = 20, Stuk = 20. Last trick bonus = 10 points.
Klaverjas (also spelled Klaberjass or Klaverjassen) is the Netherlands' most popular card game — a partnership trick-taking game played with a 32-card deck. It combines strategic bidding, strict obligation rules, and Roem bonus scoring into a deep but fast-paced card game.
This online version plays with full Amsterdams rules: mandatory overtrumping, Pit penalties for failed contracts, Stuk (King+Queen of trump), and sequence bonuses. Seven AI difficulty levels range from Beginner (random play) to Cyborg (optimal card counting with Roem maximization).
