MeggieSoft Games Canasta is a comprehensive two-player implementation supporting both the Classic and Modern American rules. Play against an online opponent or against your computer. Canasta has a robust user interface and many customizable graphic, good (including MIDI music and lecture output), prescript and scoring options. Six different computer opponent skill levels are available for when you are unable to let online, or barely want to praxis privately.
Canasta is played with a 108-card bedight (two standard packs, plus four Jokers). The game involves taking, melding, and discarding cards with the object of scoring more points than your opponent. When taking cards, one may either take fresh cards from the neckcloth, or selection up the discard pack - provided that the top board can be melded immediately. Melded cards mark points, and melds of seven cards (Canastas) also mark bonus points. Each round ends when one histrion has no more cards in paw or the neckcloth is void. The first histrion to 5000 points wins the game.
The user interface, vulgar to altogether MeggieSoft Games, supports both point-and-click and drag-and-drop mouse operations. Features include: realistic animated board movement; right-click pop-up menus; a tip facility; a tutorial; automatic play; automatic save and restore of partly finished games; multiple-user scoreboards; a clear and uncluttered main window; status-bar shortcut buttons; and fully customizable main show font and wallpaper effects for the table and playing flatness, and the board backs.
