Howdy, and welcome to Shoot the Moon! Texas Moon is a trick-taking game for iPhone that will test your bidding and card-playing skills. Similar to Spades or Bridge, this game is played with only 3 players, adding a unique twist to the traditional gameplay.

In Texas Moon, each player places their bid after drawing tiles. The highest bidder gets to set the trumps, a special suit that beats any other kind of tile. The leading player can play any tile they want, with non-trumps being ranked based on their numbers and doubles considered the highest tile of any suit. Other players must follow suit if they can, playing a trump if they don't have any matching tiles, or automatically losing the trick if they have neither.

One interesting strategy in Texas Moon is the option to "Shoot the Moon" with a bid of 21. This means the player must win all the tricks to fulfill their bid. Depending on the House Rules, a bid of 21 can even end all bidding.

If the winning bidder fails to make their bid, their score will be deducted accordingly. With its challenging gameplay and unique twist on trick-taking games, Texas Moon is sure to provide hours of entertainment for card game enthusiasts.
