The player participates in contract-bridge deals from a table-oriented viewpoint. A hand proceeds through bidding, selection of a contract, and trick-taking, with success determined by the final score rather than by real-time reflexes.

Play centers on choosing bids, following suit when required, and using memory and deduction to locate missing cards. The computer handles the opposing and partner hands. Exact modes, lesson content, scoring options, and progression systems are not documented reliably for this DOS release.

Plan the auction before committing to an ambitious contract. Count high-card strength, distribution, and likely trump support, then compare the probable contract with the risk of going set.

During play, track played honors and voids in each suit. Preserve entries between hands when possible, and avoid spending a winning card merely to regain the lead unless the contract requires it.
