500 - Multiplayer card game
• A white D marks who dealt — beside their name, or by your sort toggle when it's your deal. The tutorial explains it
• Dealt cards now land exactly where your hand will sit, so nothing jumps when they flip
• Game-over and hand-result dialogs keep their buttons on screen on short screens; rotating no longer brings back a dismissed result
• Targets Android 16
New to 500? The interactive tutorial deals you a real hand and coaches you through every bid, discard and trick — the fastest way to learn the game that keeps families arguing (fondly) for generations.
Features:
* Full Australian rules: a 43-card deck with the Joker, both bowers, a 3-card kitty, bidding from 6 to 10 tricks across the suits and no-trumps, plus Misère and Open Misère.
* Play offline against capable AI opponents — no account, no network required.
* Play online with friends: create or join a room with a short code, with cross-play between Android and the web. Any empty seats fill with bots, and if someone drops out a bot plays their hand until they rejoin. No account needed, and you can point the app at your own server.
* Four ways to play: the classic 4-player partnership game, 2-player head-to-head, or 6 players as two teams of three or three teams of two.
* Interactive tutorial that teaches by playing, not by reading.
* House rules: switch Misère or no-trumps bidding off to match how your table plays.
* Learn to count cards: hold each finished trick on the table for as long as you like, and slow down or speed up the pace to taste.
* A proper score sheet: every hand's contract and points, tallied at game end.
* First side to 500 points wins.

• Game-over and hand-result dialogs keep their button on screen on short windows (phones in landscape, flip covers); system back leaves the score sheet
• Rotating mid-hand no longer brings back a hand result you already dismissed
• Home menu, Settings and the tutorial pages scroll instead of clipping their last entries
• Landscape play works properly — opponents move to a side column so the felt and your hand keep their room
• Very short windows say "turn to portrait" instead of hiding their buttons
• "Update required" now names your version and the one you need
• Hidden cheats menu for local games: About → tap Version 7×. Show or replay a seed, re-deal from the felt, deal yourself a strong hand, peek at a player's cards
