About
Built for the community that taught us the game.
Nostrump is a four-player partnership trick-taking game. North–South sit across from East–West. Each player receives 13 cards from a standard 52-card deck. A match is a tug-of-war to the target score — usually 100. Winning hands pull points from the other side, so only one team holds the lead at a time.
This app exists so Havyaka families and friends can sit at a table from anywhere — same calling, same tricks, same honour of a well-played hand. Players play for entertainment, mental engagement, and leisure.
