For the first time in many years, Hoyle Card Games 2009 has a completely new look that is much more graphical with many 3D cut scenes. I have been playing all of the Hoyle branded games for over 5 years now and I must admit that this version is by far the best I seen.
Hoyle Card Games 2009 includes more than 75 classic card games that you have come to love, all with the official rules, tips and playing strategies. A few examples of card games that are included inside the
software is Cribbage, Bridge, Hearts, Pinochle, Gin, Rummy, Euchre, Canasta, Solitaire and for the first time Texas Hold ‘em Poker and many more casino games that are mentioned in the Casino Games Magazine.
A new feature in this years version is called Royal Suite, where friends and family can join up to socialize and play online over the Internet. So now you have the freedom to play locally against interactive computer opponents or play with friends on the Web.
As always, Holy Card Games has included the Face Creator which allows you to
customize your own character with facial features and clothing. In addition, you have the Hoyle Shop where you can purchase extra game items, decor items and music with your tokens accumulated throughout the game. The game also keeps all of your individual statistics for each card game and each profile, which is a great feature that keeps track of your records and achievements.
Hoyle Card Games 2009 does demand a more modern computer than
previous versions released. The minimum requirements are Windows XP SP3 or Vista SP1, P4 2.4 GHz Processor, 1 GB RAM, 64 MB Video RAM and a DVD Drive. Hoyle also runs on a Macintosh OS X 10.4 or higher, Intel 1.5 GHz Processor, 512 MB RAM, 64 MB Video RAM and a DVD Drive.
For more detailed information and ordering, you can visit Encore’s website. The price of the product is $19.99 and unfortunately their is no demo or trial download to test the game before purchasing.

chodirin,
You can purchase it through the link on this post at Encore’s website. Also Amazon sells the game and I think it is a little cheaper.
Great Review…and just in time for the holidays. Always looking for new games to buy the game-addicted brother-in-law!! This one seems like it really has a lot to offer!
Wow, sounds awesome.
Over 75 clasic games, that sure to keep you busy. I’m sure many would pay $19.99 for the game, does not sound to expensive.
Great Review…

Thanks for providing such good information.
I know a few old gamblers who might stay out of trouble if I buy them a copy of this - good review - thanks!

Great review by you . You have been grea doing all reviews. Thats why its said you should have only that niche of blog which you love and do it for ever and you would be very crazy about all games to play them
this product has very good minimum requirement so it is very useful for me.
Thanks for detail
ah. i think its free games
gr8 games. but its so high for spec windows. this is a good game i mean.
I am terribly disappointed in Hoyle’s 2009 version. I upgraded from the 2008 I had and the newer version is hard to play. If you like Canasta, forget it. You can’t see the cards, it’s almost impossible to move them to the meld spot and you can not move cards by double clicking them. Overall a real disappointment
Try playing pinochle w/o being able to see what the other players have melded. Some of the games are good though and it’s still a good value.
Ithink this is not a user-friendly game!
minimum requirements but really difficult to play…
couldnt find cheaper in amazon?
it,s very nice game and i like it
I like all kind of card games for pc! Canasta pc game is the best.
Hmmmm..looks very interesting. I only play spider and solitaire and maybe i can include this one in my long list of games. Thanks for sharing. I thought it’s so new and starange until I see that it’s only with regular cards.
I have been playing all of the Hoyle branded games for over 5 years now and I must admit that this version is by far the best I seen.

hoyle bridge and solitaire are good for pc gamers who like to play card games online but I think windows solitaire is better in graphics and there are many more bridge card games online, I play hoyle solitaire hope they publish hoyle card games 2010 and hope it will be better than 2009 version.
Solitaire Kate.

A very good game, could learn to be a gambler ya, though a bit confusing for me, expecting some other card games or even holy but 2010 versions for my pc
Hoyle Card Games offers a bevy of popular card games, but it does not appreciably advance the series beyond the previous game.
