Description

Full-featured, ad-supported pinochle app for Google Play Store. Play single- or double-deck with configurable options including meld bids and shoot the moon.

Pinochle is a card game played with a 48- or 80-card deck of 9s, 10s, jacks, queens, kings and aces. The game consists of a repeating sequence of bidding (for the right to name the trump suit and optionally to pass cards), melding, and trick-taking. Players score points by melding various card combinations and by taking tricks.

In this version, one human player (South) plays with a computer partner (North) and two computer opponents (West and East).

BIDDING: Each player bids the number of points she thinks she can make with her hand. Player to the dealer's left is required to bid, and bidding proceeds to the left. Players who pass are out of the bidding for that hand. A typical high bid is 35 points (for 48 cards) or 60 (for 80 cards). High bidder names the trump suit for the hand and optionally exchanges cards with her partner.

MELDING: Players get points by showing various card combinations. A run (or straight) in the trump suit is worth 15 points. Aces in all four suits is 10 points. Pinochle (queen of spades and jack of diamonds) is 4 points, or 30 points for double pinochle (two of each).

TRICKS: Play begins with the high bidder, and proceeds around the table to the left, 4 cards per trick. Each trick has a winner, who gets 1 point per ace, ten or king.

SCORING: If the high bidder fails to make the bid (his team's total meld plus trick points is less than the bid), the bid amount is subtracted from the team score. Play continues until one team goes out.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

3 ★always stops working
5 ★A BIG BOYS and BIG CABRONAS' GAME! LLAVERO'S Y LLAVERAS'!
5 ★A Good "MIND" Game!
1 ★basically...it sucks
3 ★Messes up with the amount of cards each player has numerous times. I close it and reopen it and it takes me to a lower score hand. Please update and fix bugs will give better rating
1 ★Constantly passing off trump suited 9s and J's. I've played this game for many years and have never seen anything as bad as this app or the last app I used. HORRIBLE!
3 ★This game has the potential to be a fantastic game, if not the best. However, the game freezes, needing to be restarted, quite often. Sometimes a card gets stuck on the table, overriding the other cards being played. When it works correctly, it is the BEST! Unfortunately, there is not much flawless game play in between the glitches.
2 ★It looks good but after it is downloaded there aren't any further steps or help buttons. Changing players is difficult and sometimes when I try to change my bid before setting it - the bid sticks and holds.
3 ★The game is great but locks up often on card pass mostly. No way to restart hand without losing points. Missing cards on meld...4 Aces will only show 3 etc.. Good way to practice for sure!! Thx for the game!!
3 ★I had this on my iPhone and it worked great. But on my galaxy s9, it is slow and the cards gets misplaced in different areas around the board. Please fix it so I can enjoy this game again.
2 ★Nice layout, easy to use, helped me learn the game. Best freebversion I've seen. Stopped running on my Galaxy tablet. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Reported it. Sometimes the east players card jumps in to my play area.
1 ★Extremely buggy. More bugs than my basement. UPDATE: I tried again thinking it might be better. NOPE, it has more problems than the first time I tried it
