For all three difficulty levels the cards are dealt completely at random to you and to the computer players. Computer players are not given any special advantage and they do not know what cards are in your hand or in any of the other players' hands. The difference between the easy, standard, and pro players is their memory of what cards have been played and their strategies used to choose their plays. If you are finding that the computer is beating you, you will likely benefit from understanding how the computer chooses its next move.

The standard Cribbage board has four rows of 30 holes. The object of the game is to go around the two tracks (or rows) the same way a horse goes around an oval in a horse race, completing the circuits before your opponent does. Each point you score advances you one space, so you need 121 points to complete your journey and win the game.

Cribbage is a card game where two players try to score points by forming combinations of cards. The first person to reach 121 points wins! Easy to use controls and detailed instructions make this game fun for all experience levels and ages.
