Notes

Currently, FiftyTwo does NOT work on build 703 or newer, including joyride builds. The problem is the Rainbow security system. This problem will hopefully be fixed by July.

Thank you for your patience.

Summary

FiftyTwo is a set of card games, such as Go Fish, Crazy Eights, Hearts, Solitaire, and maybe eventually games like Eucher or Spades. It is written in Python using the pygame library. In the not-too-distant-future, FiftyTwo will support mesh play with up to four players (for games like Hearts or Spades), and it already supports single-person play against the computer (basic AI play), and multi-player (on the same computer) play.
