Description:
Big Two is a game for the Palm OS. It is a game of 'Choi Dai Di' in Chinese and is very fun to play among four players.
The aim of the game is to get rid of all your cards. The interesting thing about this game is that the biggest card is 2 and hence the name 'Big Two'.
Download the game now, it is freeware. Please also feedback any comments or bugs to me. I have released the source code under GPL, get the source code from here.
Instruction:
- Player with the 3 of diamonds, leads. You can play a single card, a pair of cards (e.g. two 5's), 3 cards of same rank, or 5 cards in a flush, straight, or full house.
- Object of the game is to get rid of your cards first. 2's are high, 3's are low. Suit rank in ascending order is diamond, club, heart and spade.
Update Description:
v2.2.8 - 11 February 2007:
- Update the game instruction, thanks Headcronie at Brighthand discussion board
- Redraw sort by rank and sort by suit icons
- Landscape mode: remove the title bar line in card history area
- Bug fix :"BigTwo disabled auto off"
Game settings can be customized to speed things up or slow things down.
Move Pair Boards to the expansion card and free up some RAM!
Think fast and move faster! - Get into the Top-5 High Score Table!

v2.2.7 fixed my Clie T665C crash problem. Still get the odd crash when trying to use a quick stroke with X-Master/Easylaunch hack. The IR multiplayer works between my T665 and and Palm T|X. You have to set them down so as to not lose the IR link. If you do the "JOIN" pda will crash. Multiplayer on a single PDA works like a charm. Thanks!

Very good game. I have been playing this game since it was in v1.2. In this new version, both the AI and graphics are better. Better still, you can choose HK rules sets. Thanks to the developer!

On my other PDA, a Clie T665C (Palm OS4.1) I get the following error message: SystemMgr.c, Line:185, Unimplemented. Have to do a soft reset.

This program gives error ask asked to reset on my M505 with memory card. I installed it in the card but it reset my system. Any solution?

I have been playing this game for years now. Multiplayer makes an awesome game even better. Adding an extra window for played cards (can hide it on my Palm T|X) richer graphics & customizable game options makes this a 6-star program! Do you take donations???

A great palm version of a great card game. I can't recommend this enough, especially if you already know how to play :)

To: heartworm, I'm sorry that, what you said is the special rule of big-two... "2" is always the biggest, except it is used as the "beginning" of a straight...

This game CHEATS man. The two beats everything, but if you use it in a straight, say, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, someone can beat you with 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, even though they don't have a two in their hand. Something's wrong with that. Other than that, this is a fun game, with good AI and a simple yet functional interface.
