Classic Minnesota Whist

Classic Minnesota Whist — play offline vs smart AI.
No internet required. No sign-up. Just a fast, strategic 4-player partnership trick-taking game with a unique twist: no trumps.

Minnesota Whist is a regional Whist variant popular in Minnesota and South Dakota. It’s played in partnerships like classic Whist, but each round is decided by a simple High or Low bidding mechanic — and because there are no trumps, winning tricks is pure suit play and timing.

Quickfire rules
After the cards are dealt, each player bids High (black card) or Low (red card). Bid cards are revealed in order; if the first black card appears, that player has granded and the round is played High (teams try to win as many tricks as possible). If all bid cards are red, the round is played Low (teams try to win as few tricks as possible).
Players follow suit if possible. With no trumps, the highest card of the led suit wins each trick. Scoring depends on whether the round is High or Low and whether the set bonus rule is enabled.
