General improvements
Hokm is a fantastic digital version of the traditional Persian card game. If you're a fan of trick-taking games like Spades or Bridge, you'll feel right at home. The AI is surprisingly competent, which makes it great for practicing when you don't have three friends to play with.
The interface is elegant and captures the cultural vibe of the game perfectly. While it's a bit niche if you didn't grow up playing it, the rules are easy to learn but hard to master. It's a great way to keep your mind sharp and enjoy a piece of Persian culture on the go.
Authentic Persian Hokm rules
Single-player and Online Multiplayer modes
Beautifully designed card decks and backgrounds
Adjustable AI difficulty
Social features to play with friends and family
Hokm is played with a standard 52-card deck. The 'Hakem' (Ruler) chooses the trump suit after the first few cards are dealt. Teams compete to win tricks, and the first team to win seven hands wins the match.
The game requires careful memory and teamwork. You must track which cards have been played and try to communicate with your partner through your plays to secure as many tricks as possible while neutralizing the opponents' trumps.
Hakem translates to 'Ruler' or 'Governor.' In the game, the Hakem is the player who has the privilege of choosing the trump suit for that hand.
This is truly the only Hokm app that is excellent. The layout is excellent, the game algorithm is very smart, actually smarter than average players, which makes playing against the computer fun. If you like the epic Persian card game of Hokm, this app the the one app you should have. Extremely well done! To the developer: 1. Please do not add chat. It will ruin the game. 2. Please penalize players that drop off during the game. This is frustrating and ruins the experience. I think this feature will filter out unwanted players.
This app is really great. One thing to note however is that the multiplayer option stops working at times. I’m not sure if this happens when there are too many people online, but this has happened to me and my friends a couple of times. If this could be fixed, that would be great!
It’s an amazing app i truly love the fact that how smooth it is. The only issue i got with it is that sometimes u feel like what u got on ur hand is not fair n i think it’s kinda a glitch or something. But keep it up and make it a better app it’s undoubtedly the best app for playing Hokm this fabulous Iran’s traditional game!
The last update is really disappointed; intering the game is multiplayer is too hard and depending on playing fast games that intering to it is really crazi too ; I hope so to sole these problems to enjoy playing as well as before.
1. After a couple of games, it goes to home. You plied 3-5 hands already but then you lose all the points, Waste of time. Fix this bug. 2. Sometimes it seems one person enters the game with two or even three cell phones to sabotage the game for the others. This is not a fair game, and it’s probably better that players have computer partners so they can not cheat. 3. Add some dark backgrounds too. All the backgrounds are very bright. I will give you five-star feedback when you fix these problems.
It is a good game but it has some really annoying bugs one of them is that at the start of the game the cards won’t appear the hakem choses the hokm but the cards still don’t appear and after my time is over it says I’ve got disconnected I really think it should have like a reconnect thing to play the rest of the game
The app is good for playing with friends. But it does kick players out sometimes. Also, I get a feeling they don’t use a real random card generator algorithm. It seems like the app weights hands to favor losing teams sometimes to make it more competitive. Wish the developers would confirm or deny, and change if it is not truly random.
Please don't add chat, it will everything ruined. I had no problem neither faced no bug. Easy to play. Playing with computer isn't frustrating like similar apps , it plays really smart and relatively accurate. Definitely recommended!
