## Pinochle+ Description
This is a no-ads, no-tracking, no-subscriptions version of the first and most popular pinochle app for iPhone, iPad and Mac. Play single- or double-deck with configurable options including meld bids and shoot the moon. Pinochle Plus is updated frequently with user-suggested features and AI improvements. To try before you buy, see our free, ad-supported Pinochle app. If you prefer, our other pinochle app with no advertising, Pinochle Gold, has more card backs and tabletops to choose from, and adds support for several languages.

Pinochle is a card game played with a 48- or 80-card deck of 9s, 10s, jacks, queens, kings and aces. The game consists of a repeating sequence of bidding (for the right to name the trump suit and optionally to pass cards), melding, and trick-taking. Players score points by melding various card combinations and by taking tricks.

In this version, one human player (South) plays with a computer partner (North) and two computer opponents (West and East).

BIDDING: Each player bids the number of points she thinks she can make with her hand. Player to the dealer's left is required to bid, and bidding proceeds to the left. Players who pass are out of the bidding for that hand. A typical high bid is 35 points (for 48 cards) or 60 (for 80 cards). High bidder names the trump suit for the hand and optionally exchanges cards with her partner.

MELDING: Players get points by showing various card combinations. A run (or straight) in the trump suit is worth 15 points. Aces in all four suits is 10 points. Pinochle (queen of spades and jack of diamonds) is 4 points, or 30 points for double pinochle (two of each).

TRICKS: Play begins with the high bidder, and proceeds around the table to the left, 4 cards per trick. Each trick has a winner, who gets 1 point per ace, ten or king.

SCORING: If the high bidder fails to make the bid (his team's total meld plus trick points is less than the bid), the bid amount is subtracted from the team score. Play continues until one team goes out.

## Pinochle+ Reviews in United States

### *---- "Partner passes 9s!!!"
Every single time. Partner has a jack of diamonds or queen of spades, yet passes an ace and 3 9s. How hard is it to fix this. Come on!
-- Try2Remember, 2024-10-14

### ***** "Well done, Fishdog!"
This game has plenty of options to play with many different styles of pinochle. I’m quite impressed with the work that went into it and the fun of playing.   I no longer willing to be a prisoner to the advertising in other games, and have deleted them all, happy to pay three or four dollars for the relaxation of a better game app.
I’m hoping that some point there will be a game that can be played online with live opponents, again without advertising.
I think those people will just love this game.
-- oldhoosier, 2024-10-03

### ****- "Two suggestions"
Show meld for ALL players instead of showing meld one player at a time.

Reconsider meld bids. In my world, a jump of two points = a meld bid of 20, jump of three points shows a meld bid of 30, etc. In this app, apparently a jump bid just means *some* meld. Even just 10.
-- Didi02453, 2024-05-17

### ***** "Pinochle"
Very good version of the game with lots of customization features.  My only complaint is that the game is very pessimistic about how many tricks you can take. For example:  say you need 20 tricks to save your meld and the app says you might take 17.  More times than not I’ll end up taking high 20’s or even 30 or more.  This part of the app need some work.

### ***** "Close to a real pinochle game"
Terrific game. Beautifully designed. Lots of options. Lovely font
-- best jinge, 2023-07-16

### ***** "Fun"
I’ve just learned how to play and this is amazing way to enhance my game. Love it!!
-- Ptah461, 2023-07-02

### ***-- "Nuck"
Whoever wrote this program can’t play a lick of Nuck.
-- E.S.money, 2023-06-25

### **--- "Frustration"
I play this game often. I'm a single deck player. The meld is ridiculous. Dummy opposing team seem to get all large meld hand. 45 meld, 27 meld. Ridiculous!!! Opponent always has the aces. My dummy partner doesn't bid correctly and how bout an update with the option of NO auction bid? Takes all the fun out of the game. It's hard enough to get a run, then they get 26 meld. Fix this game and make it fair. How this gets on the update is crazy. Find out who did that, and who approved it, fire them both. I give 2 stars just cause I love pinochle. 2 stars is pushing it for me. Get people who really know how to play the game to redesign it. 
Offer no no action bid.
-- frankiescarp, 2023-04-14

### ***** "Great App"
Is there a way to play online? I really enjoy your App and it allows me to keep playing my favorite game. 
It is extremely difficult to find people that know how to play double deck pinochle in my area. 
Keep up the great App ❣️
-- Hanover red, 2023-02-19

### ***** "Pinochle"
Just love this game. Hardly anyone plays anymore. So now I can Play all the time! And no ads !!
