Subject: Mac500 Version 1.2
Mac500 is a Macintosh version of the popular card game Five Hundred.
You and a computer partner play against two computer opponents. Mac500
allows you to choose some of the most popular variations of the rules of
Five Hundred, and it keeps a history of games and bids won and lost by
you and your opponents. You can name your players and change the
bidding styles of the computer players. If you are new to the game, you
can have Mac500 suggest bids and cards to play.
Version 1.2:
¥ improves the bidding and playing of the computer players
¥ adds a concede/lay down option when one player has all trump and his
or her opponents are out of trump
¥ adds an option to go to the next trick using a time delay or the
space bar rather than the continue button
¥ moves the "Show Suggestions" options to the Options Panel in the
Preferences Window, and other enhancements.
The registration fee is $10 US. If unregistered, the program quits
after 15 minutes each time you use it, and preference settings are not
saved.
Mac500 will run on a 68030 Mac with Mac OS 7.1 A PowerPC is
recommended.
