About Euchre
Euchre is a classic card game of quick hands and smart calls. You team up with a computer partner against two computer opponents, so you can play anytime without rounding up three friends.
Each hand, one team picks the trump suit and tries to win at least 3 of the 5 tricks. Feeling confident? Choose to play alone without your partner for extra points.
You can play by North American or British rules, so pick the version you grew up with.
