Snaples is a game in which players place bids and pick trumps in an attempt to win tricks and lower their score from sixteen to zero.

The best way to learn Snarples is first to play a game in learning mode. Select the Off-Line option, then select the Learning game. The game will populate four players (three app-nerds, aka bots and yourself). During this game, you can pause at any time, see the app-nerds cards. This game does not affect your Snepts balance. However, the results of learning mode games do not contribute to your position on the leaderboard.
