Game guide · MAIKEWU

Read before your next round of Declaration Practice

Use the rule sheet as a reference. Check whether a complete 13-card hand can satisfy every declaration requirement. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer. Keep the active rule in mind. Start a 10-question session. Read the visible rule label and wild rank, if shown. Check the relevant controls before continuing.

500 stored and rule-checked questions; ten questions per session. Questions can repeat across sessions. Practice is solo, with no rating, cash reward or account.

A focus for your next round

A clear plan starts with the current position. All cards need a non-overlapping grouping, at least two sequences and at least one pure sequence. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.

The purpose of your moves

Check whether a complete 13-card hand can satisfy every declaration requirement. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. Work at your own pace.

From the start of a round

  1. Start a 10-question session. Read the visible rule label and wild rank, if shown.
  2. All cards need a non-overlapping grouping, at least two sequences and at least one pure sequence.
  3. Study the complete hand before answering. Choose Valid or Not valid.
  4. Read the explanation after submitting. Each question accepts one submitted answer.
  5. Continue to the tenth question for a session score; start another session for a new selection.

Using the playing area

Tap the answer buttons or selected card; the deadwood exercise uses a numeric input. Next question appears after an answer. Take the next action only when the current step is clear. Work at your own pace.

Work through an example

Example hand: Q♠ 7♦ 8♥ K♠ J♣ Q♥ 5♦ 7♥ 10♠ 8♦ 8♥ 9♦ 4♠. Wild rank 12. No full grouping meets the two-sequence and pure-sequence requirement. The penalty for this hand is 42 points. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.

Avoid this misunderstanding

For a calm first round, focus on one decision. Do not judge only the best three cards; every remaining card matters. Use another round to revisit a decision.

What does the score measure?

The score is the number of correct answers in this ten-question session. It is not a skill certificate or a prediction of match results. Before making a move, check the cards in view. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.
