Italian Pinochle is a popular Italian card game that combines elements of Rummies and Burraco. This iPhone game allows you to play Pinochle with two teams of two players each, where your goal is to score more points than your adversaries.

The gameplay is split into two sides: your team melds on one side, while your opponents meld on the other. You can only play on your side and have the opportunity to take jokers from your adversaries' melds. Additionally, there is a special kind of joker called Pinella (2 of clubs and spades) that can only be placed and taken from your melds by you and your teammate.

Italian Pinochle offers a special discard pile that allows you to take cards from the top of it, regardless of their origin. The free version of the game is fully featured but includes advertisements. However, you have the option to purchase the full version to enjoy an ad-free experience.

The game provides many configuration settings, including standard and special leaderboards, as well as geo leaderboards. There are two game modes available: Single Game and Score Mode, allowing you to play against your device. You can play both offline and online, and detailed help is available to guide you through the game. The developer also offers great support for any questions or suggestions you may have.
