This game is based on a kind of reverse psychology. Hearts are evil, and even though they play up to 100 points - the one who collects them is a loser. To win this game you must have the least points. So as few hearts as possible, which is 3 points, and a spade lady who carries 13 points.

The modern version of the Hearts game relies on the French tradition from the 17th century. In the 20th century, a rule was introduced in European colleges that the game must be played with at least 4 players. The game is further popularized on the Internet; even Windows incorporated it into the basics of its 1991 operating system.

As the name suggests, Solitaire is a lonely game, i.e. a card game that can be played by one person. According to some sources, it was first mentioned in the 17th century and is another card game that has a lot of versions. 

In the beginning, it was supposed to be a group game, where each player had his own deck of cards and who was the first to arrange all the cards - he was the winner. Over time, players probably realized that it was possible to play against themselves, or against the deck in many variations. 

Legend has it that Napoleon adored solitaire and that he was responsible for the popularity of this game. The modern resurrection of solitaire also happened with the development of PCs and Windows operating systems. 

Everyone who has used, or continues to use Windows, knows that solitaire is still part of the basic package. The object of the game is to play all the cards that have been dealt with you and thus create a set. You must arrange the set in alternating numbers, arranging the cards from king to ace.
