Bezique is a 19th-century card game for two players, using a 64-card deck (two decks of 32). This app brings the classic game to life with elegant visuals and a smart AI opponent. Learn how to form combinations (melds) like the eponymous Bezique (Queen of Spades and Jack of Diamonds) to score points. The first player to reach the target score wins. Perfect for fans of Pinochle and Belote.

Our Expert Score
Bezique brings a classic, somewhat forgotten card game to the digital age with class and clarity. For those unfamiliar, Bezique is a trick-taking game that predates many modern classics, and this app does a fantastic job of teaching the nuances of 'melds' and 'declarations.'
The AI is surprisingly competent, offering a genuine challenge even for seasoned players. The interface is clean, reminiscent of a high-end parlor, and doesn't clutter the screen with unnecessary animations. It’s a refined experience for card game enthusiasts who want something a bit more sophisticated than standard Solitaire.

Tips & Walkthrough
The core of scoring in Bezique is the 'meld.' After winning a trick, you can lay down combinations from your hand. Focus on collecting the Queen of Spades and Jack of Diamonds for the high-scoring Bezique declaration.
Gameplays
Gameplay consists of two phases: the first phase where players can meld and draw new cards, and the second phase (when the stock is empty) where standard trick-taking rules apply and players must follow suit.

Bezique
Fri Feb 07 2020 Grimo61I like this game because I grow up playing it. But there is a major flaw in its addition. Somehow the computer cheats when it put down jack of diamond and queen of spade. It will go from 10 points to 500 points. Please fit it
Unable to make the moves stick
Mon Sep 29 2025 .bLWWhen attempting to play a card, system keeps rejecting the move. After many attempts, system accepts the card and play resumes. Melds cannot be completed for same reason
Unable to play
Sun Jun 09 2019 OchazzzNice concept and I applaud your attempt to bring this game to the computer age. But, it is too difficult to put down meld or any combination. Therefore the game is useless and cannot be played. Please try it and see if this problem can be corrected. Thank you.
Kind of a mess

Terrible
Sat Apr 14 2018 PascaleLeeI paid.99 for this?! I know how to play this game very well, and I can’t even get started in rookie mode! You should refund my money back to me. I’m disappointed.
Great game
