Description

BidWiz is a trick-taking card game based on the ideas behind the popular bidding card games "Oh Hell" and "Wizard." What makes BidWiz unique, is that each player chooses his own hand by taking turns to select one of the top two cards of the draw pile, until the draw pile is exhausted. Each player must then bid how many tricks he thinks he can win, and must make his bid exactly to be rewwarded with points. Trumps alternate between each suit, with the last hand being a no-trump hand worth double points. Step 1: Build Your Hand - Build the best hand possible, one card at a time. Step 2: Bid Your Hand - Bid the highest number of tricks your hand will win, without over-bidding. Step 3: Play Your Hand - Play your hand to match your bid and if possible block your opponent(s) from getting their bid.
