Spades is an application that lets you play Spades on your Mac. Spades is a rather popular partnership card game in which you and your partner set out to win what are called tricks.
The graphics of the game are its weakest point. When you launch the game, it takes the full screen and the cards and menu items look like a DOS game from the 1990's. The music is OK, but a bit repetitive.
The actual gameplay is great. The computer guides you with instructions on what you can and can't do. If you already knew how to play Spades before playing this game, you will enjoy it. On the other hand, if you are like me, a novice player, you will probably struggle a bit at first until you get the hang of it.
In short, Spades is a nice simulation of the Spades card game. If the menus were improved a bit and the music was less repetitive, this game would definitely get five stars.
