MeggieSoft Games Euchre and Ecarte is a customizable software offering two card games: Ecarte and Euchre. Play against a computer or online opponent with various interface and audio options for an immersive gaming experience.
MeggieSoft Games Euchre and Ecarte is a software that provides a complete implementation of the two popular card games, Ecarte and Euchre (the two-player version). It offers the option to play against an online opponent or against your computer, with six different computer opponent skill levels available for private practice.
The software features a rich user interface that allows for a high degree of customizability in terms of graphics, sound (including MIDI music and speech output), rule, and scoring options. Each game involves winning the majority of five tricks. In Ecarte, players have the ability to swap unwanted cards with fresh ones from the stock before playing the tricks, whereas in Euchre, players negotiate which suit will be the trump suit with no exchange allowed.
Points are earned by winning the most tricks, winning all five tricks, and (in Euchre) beating the player who chose the trump suit. The software also allows for the combination of rules from each game, creating a hybrid known as "Eucharte."
The user interface supports both point-and-click and drag-and-drop mouse operations, with features such as realistic animated card movement, right-click pop-up menus, a hint facility, a tutorial, automatic play, and automatic save and restore of partly finished games. Additionally, there are multiple-user scoreboards, a clean and uncluttered main window, status-bar shortcut buttons, and fully customizable main display font and wallpaper effects for the table, playing mat, and card backs.
Overall, the MeggieSoft Games Euchre and Ecarte software provides a comprehensive and highly customizable experience for fans of the Ecarte and Euchre card games.
