Classic Hearts game lovers rejoice! There is a new king in town with the best hearts card game around! Hearts is a trick-taking card game played with four players and 52 cards. All players receive 13 cards at the beginning of each round. At the beginning of some rounds, there is a passing period. Each player gets a chance to pass three cards to one of their opponents. The passing rounds are on a cycle, where in the first round, cards are passed.

These are the rules I use for Hearts. There are many variations possible, but I use the basic ones from Wikipedia.

As of 21.02.2014 I've changed the game so the Queen of Spades no longer breaks hearts. I used to get complaints that it didn't, then when I changed it to make sure she did break then I got even more complaints about that. So, it looks like most people want the Queen of Spades to not break hearts, so that's the way it'll be from now on. Please do not write to me requesting that I change this again!
About Hearts
This online version of the classic card game Hearts was made by me. My name is Einar Egilsson and over there on the left is my current Facebook profile picture! Hearts is the third card game I've made, the other two are Shithead and Crazy Eights. I used to play Hearts a lot when I was younger, it was one of the games that came with every version of Windows. I wanted to be able to play Hearts online, and just didn't think all the hundreds of other versions of Hearts would do! Of the card games I've made, Hearts is probably my favorite. At least I play it a lot more than the others.
The game is made using html+JavaScript+css with jQuery used for the animations. All the graphics used for the game I found at OpenClipArt, a great site with free graphics. The excellent playing card images were made by Nicu Buculei, and the player images were made by Gerald G.

This is version 2406 of Hearts.
