From the developers

Two partners must turn their bids into a result. Count the tricks, watch the bags, and consider how impressive your confidence will sound if someone else has to rescue it. We said it with such confidence. We would now appreciate a little cooperation from the hand.

Local bot play, including a bot partner, is implemented in the app under internal testing. Public multiplayer is not yet available.

Partnership strategy should provide the complexity. Finding the score should not. This is a developer spotlight, rather than a new release announcement. We bring optimism to the partnership. Our partner would quite reasonably prefer tricks.
