A score keeper for Deberc

Cards on the table, score on the phone.

Deberc is a trick-taking card game of the Klaverjas family that Ukrainians have played for generations — two-handed, three-handed or in two pairs. This app takes the place of the pencil and paper: it remembers who deals, works out bait and eggs for you and writes the score in sticks and circles, just like on a score sheet.

At the table

Everything you used to scribble in the margin

The app knows the rules of Deberc, so all that’s left at the table is to play and call out the points.

  • Two, three or two pairs

    Two or three players each for themselves, or two teams of two. Use your own names or just “Us” and “Them”. Play to 301, 501 or 1001, and see next to each side how many points it still needs.

  • Knows who deals

    The deals badge moves on by itself after every deal, and the side to the dealer’s left is already picked as the one taking the trump. If everyone passes, one tap records a redeal, or, if at your table the dealer must play, the trump goes to the dealer.

  • Tierces, fifties, bella

    Count the declarations with “−” and “+”, or spin a wheel: 162, 182, 202… all the way to 662. Enter one side’s points and the app gives the rest of the deal to the other.

  • Bait, eggs and penalties

    Took the trump and scored less? That’s BAIT — the whole deal goes to the opponents. A tie, EGGS, follows your table’s rule: held over, to the opponents, or each keeps their own. If your table penalises a third bait or skis — a deal without a single trick — the app takes off the 50 or 100 points itself.

  • Deberc wins it outright

    Seven trumps in a row decide the game on the spot, whatever the score. There’s a key for it right next to zero. And when both sides reach the target in the same deal, the winner is the side with more points or the side that played, whichever your table goes by.

  • Circles and sticks

    The score as it looks on paper: a crossed circle is 100, a circle 50, a stick 20. Prefer digits? Switch to plain numbers.

  • Mistakes are easy to fix

    ↶ takes back the last deal, and any other one can be opened, changed or deleted. Totals, the dealer and the winner are worked out again.

  • Rules to hand

    The rules of Deberc are built in — in all seven of the app’s languages, no internet needed. Handy for teaching a newcomer at the table, or read them in advance right here.

New round

A deal in three steps

  1. Who took the trump

    The side to the dealer’s left is already selected — tap the other one if they took it instead.

  2. What the deal is worth

    The app adds tierces, fifties and bella to 162 and shows the total above the buttons.

  3. One side’s points

    Type them on the keypad and the opponents get the rest. Then just tap “Save”.

A tie brings up an EGGS hint, and if the trump-taker falls short you’ll see a BAIT warning — before you save the deal.

Just like on paper

Circles and sticks, the way it’s always been written

If you’ve kept score in a notebook, you’ll recognise it at once. If not, it takes a minute to learn.
