Hearts

Getting Started
HRTZ Image

In Hearts, you play for all or nothing. That is, the goal is to take all the Hearts (and the Queen of Spades) or none at all. Pick up anything in between and you'll earn points (one for each Heart and 13 for the Queen of Spades). You don't want to earn points. Points are bad. Hearts is one of the easiest games to learn, and you'll soon find a rhythm -- just watch out for tricky players!
