Bridge at Sea · Declarer Challenge

Contracts that put you in the hot seat

Tricky bridge contracts to play as declarer, timed and scored, against computer
defenders that give a real game.

How it works

Every hand has a problem only you can solve

Each hand puts you in a contract with a specific problem to solve — a safety play,
a hold-up, an elimination, a finesse you should refuse. Get it right the first time
for the most points; you get three attempts per hand. After every hand, a full
written explanation walks you through the winning line, trick by trick.

Features

Everything you need for real practice

Thirty-three real problems

Safety plays, hold-ups, eliminations, dummy reversals and more — every suit, majors and minors alike.

Challenge a friend

Send your score, see who comes out on top

Once you’ve finished a challenge, send it to a friend with your score attached —
they play the same three hands and find out whether they can beat you. Most points
wins; time breaks a tie.
