Bridge (Infogrames)

A complicated game for beginners to learn (with a seemingly endless stream of books dedicated to the subject, bridge is a four-player partnership trick-taking game with thirteen tricks per deal. Each player is dealt thirteen cards from a standard 52-card deck. A trick starts when a player leads, i.e. plays the first card. The leader to the first trick is determined by the auction; the leader to each subsequent trick is the player who won the preceding trick. Each player, in clockwise order, plays one card on the trick. Players must play a card of the same suit as the original card led, unless they have none (said to be "void"), in which case they may play any card.

Infogrames version requires some basic knowledge of the game to get anywhere and is playable in both English and French.
