About Five Hundred
The classic Five Hundred card game, now available on Steam!
This game has been lovingly crafted to be the best possible version of the game it can be. Coming to steam, the game now takes advantage of multiplayer, achievements, and leaderboards. Support for animated card tables (backdrops) has also been added.
However, release is only the beginning! Five Hundred is a game played in homes, workplaces, and clubs around the world, and players may have evolved their own house rules or optimal playstyles. I'm intending to monitor feedback and continue to provide enhancements to features, functionality, and gameplay over time.
500 or Five Hundred is a trick-taking card game, originally from the United States, but also popular in the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
Paradice Five Hundred implements the most popular, 4-player variant, with two teams of two players, 10 cards per hand, and each player bidding for contracts.
The game supports bids of 6-10 tricks, in any suit (or no trumps), as well as a 3-card kitty issued to the highest bidder.
The game ends when one team scores over 500 points, or when a team loses by scoring negative 500 through failed bids.

If you've played the 500 card game, this is a very realistic recreation.3 found this helpful
I love 500 but haven't played in person for ages. Its great being able to play vs AI and try out different strategies, balance seems fair with options to tweak AI behaviour. If you enjoy card games, highly recommend. Have only played a couple of multiplayer games, but works well if you want to play vs friends.2 found this helpful
If you've played the 500 card game, this is a very realistic recreation - the AI players play just like my friends used to!2 found this helpful
