I'd describe it in it's own right, as people who are familiar with the Windows game of the same name will recognise it, and others will want to know what it is independently. Hearts is a trick-taking, point-accumulating card game for four players, where certain cards have a points value. The object of the game is to obtain the fewest points. Hearts has beta support for network play, to allow multiple humans to play against other. You can also play against computer opponents to make up the numbers. I appreciate your description which is much better than mine. I'll most likely use your description for the upcoming package, if you don't mind. B/R, Frederik Dannemare

Microsoft didn't invent hearts. Is it really necessary to refer to them? How about: Hearts is a four person card game. Is there something special that this Hearts does to emulate Microsoft? Same keystrokes?

Microsoft didn't invent hearts. Is it really necessary to refer to them? How about: Hearts is a four person card game. You have a point. I will have the package description changed. Is there something special that this Hearts does to emulate Microsoft? Same keystrokes? Don't know, really. I haven't played MS hearts for many years, so I don't recall the key strokes, etc. My package description was merely inspired by the description of the game on http://freshmeat.net/projects/hearts/ and http://hearts.luispedro.org/ B/R, Frederik Dannemare
