Dinsun Review

If you grew up playing Sibeeta, this is probably a nostalgia trip. If you didn't, it’s just a slightly confusing version of Hearts with a clunky UI. The card logic is sound, and the AI isn't the worst I’ve seen, but the app feels like it was made on a shoestring budget.

The multiplayer is hit-or-miss, with frequent disconnects and a player base that is mostly concentrated in one region, making matchmaking difficult at certain hours. It’s fine for what it is—a niche digital version of a parlor game—but it doesn't offer anything to a broader audience that wouldn't be better served by a more polished, universal card app.

From the developer of Hand and Trex comes Sibeeta!
Sibeeta is a middle eastern version of Hearts. It's the same game with quite a few twists, such as an added penalty card (10 of Diamonds) and the ability to announce penalty cards for double the points. You may also play partnership games, (aka likha) and tear apart the other team.
There's no pleasantries in Sibeeta such as breaking hearts, starting with 2 of clubs, or shooting the moon. Your focus is to completely obliterate your opponents even if they take every point in the deck.
- Online multiplayer support!
- If you're new to the game, there's a "How to Play" that should get you started out.
- Not your standard Hearts bots, trust me.
- Partnership games.
- Option to add jokers as wildcards. Those are total life savers!
- Fun graphics and sound.
- Sick of that background? Go ahead and change it through options.

Tips

The 'Passing' Strategy

At the start of each round, you must pass three cards to an opponent. Always try to pass your highest Spades (King/Ace) to avoid being forced to take the Queen of Spades later. If you have a hand full of high Hearts, consider trying to win EVERY point to 'Shoot the Moon' and reset your score.

Trick-Taking Mechanics

Follow the lead suit whenever possible. If you are 'void' in a suit, it's the perfect time to dump the Sibeeta (Queen of Spades) or a high Heart on an opponent to increase their score.
