Euchre has apparently been described as one of the best card games ever, according to this Special K version.

Similar to Trumps in many ways, but preceding it by many years, the object of the game is to reach a predefined score and prevent others from doing the same.

Euchre is played in pairs and can therefore be more fun than Trumps. Each team selects their trump suit, but must follow suit where possible. A hand is won by either laying the highest card or by laying a trump card.

The graphics in this game are fairly basic, but you can play against up to three computer opponents and can select the type of partner you wish to play with.

Various elements can be altered to suit your personal preferences, such as the background colour, the speed of play and whether or not to activate sound effects.
