PLAYING MODES
- Single Player
You can play alone, against your iPhone or iPhod Touch. The other players are simulated by AI.

- Multiplayer
You can play with your friends over a local wireless network. If any of the four human players is not actually available in the network, he is automatically simulated by the Artificial Intelligence (AI).
You can choose between creating a game table or looking for tables available in the network.
The game options for each table are established by the table's originator and can be seen in the scrolling menu during the seach for available tables.
The statistics of the victories with the various partners are recorded in the playing mode.

-Training Mode
In this version of the application, you can play true games having the possibility to follow the deductions of your partner and of the opponents.
You play in stand alone mode, the other players being simulated via software.
The cards of the simulated players are visible to you only. The other players act as in a normal game of iTressette X4, without “looking at what is in the other players' hand”. At the end of each trick, the game stops and you have the possibility, if you want, to see the rationales behind the choices of the simulated players (rationals and justifications are in italian only). When it is your turn to play, you can ask for a “motivated” suggestion about the card to play. The suggestion is in italian but the suggested card and the relevant declaration, if any, are highlighted for an easy identification.

- Target Score: The target score can be chosen among 11, 21, 31, 41 and 51 points.
