斗地主 - 单机武侠版 app for iPhone and iPad

Dou Dizhu is a card game in the genre of shedding and gambling. It is one of the most popular card games played in China. It is easy to learn but hard to master requiring mathematical and strategic thinking as well as carefully planned execution.

Dou Dizhu is played among three people with one pack of cards, including the two jokers. The game starts with players bidding for the Landlord (地主) position. Those who lose the bid enter the game as the Farmers (农民) team competing against the Landlord. The objective of the game is to be the first player to have no cards left.

Basic rules:

1. Individual cards are ranked. Colored Joker > Black & White Joker > 2 > Ace (A) > King (K) > Queen (Q) > Jack (J) > 10 > 9 > 8 > 7 > 6 > 5 > 4 > 3.
2. Suits are irrelevant. Players can play the game with all the suits erased from the cards.
3. Compare only the same Category. A player can only beat the prior hand using of the same Category but not the others.
4. Compare only the Chains with the same length. Beat the prior hand using the same number of cards is a basic doctrine which only the Nuke and the Bomb may violate. For example, although both 9-10-J-Q-K and 3-4-5-6-7-8-9 are Single Chains, 9-10-J-Q-K cannot beat 3-4-5-6-7-8-9, nor vice versa.
5. Compare the rank in the Primal cards only. The Kickers rank is irrelevant to the comparison.
6. Jokers and 2 are inconsecutive cards. Colored Joker, black-and-white Joker, and 2 cannot be used in any of the Primal cards of the Chains since they are not traditionally considered as the consecutive cards sequentially next to the Ace. Examples of illegal Chain: 2-3-4-5-6, 2-2-2-3-3-3 w/ A-A-7-7, K-A-2 + B&W Joker + Colored Joker
