Play real Spades online, your way. Choose JJ22 (Joker Joker Deuce Deuce, also labeled JJDD in the app) or Traditional Ace High rules and jump into live games with friends, crews, bots, or players around the world.
Built by a real Spades player with 25+ years at the table, BooksMade Spades is made for the way people actually play. From the Big Joker down to the Power 2s, JJ22/JJDD is handled right, and Traditional Ace High is built in too.
Now it is even easier to get a game going. CREW Mode lets you play with any number of friends and use bots to fill the rest of the table, so you do not have to play alone or wait for a full group of four. Bring one friend, two friends, or the whole crew and get into the action.
Spectate Mode lets friends watch live games without taking a seat. Invite people to follow the action, keep up with bids, books, and big plays, and stay connected while the table runs.
Live chat adds more table energy to eligible games, giving players more ways to talk, react, and make every match feel like real Spades.
Play free with ads, or subscribe to Premium Access for ad-free play outside spectator mode, premium emojis, and expanded chat phrases ($1.99/month or $14.99/year). Spectating games may still show ads for all users.

No other app on the market allows you to play the Joker-Joker-Deuce-Deuce (JJDD) rules in spades like Books Made does. For those unfamiliar with JJDD rules, the app also offers standard ‘Ace high’ rules for the classic style of play. You can create leagues too, which allows for custom rules, game invites, score tracking and chats for trash talk. If you’re on the fence, this is a great game and for anyone looking to get smoked at the table, download the app and step up!
Amazing App!
TheDopestEthiopiannnnn
This app really has all of the things I'm looking for in a spades app. You can chat with your partner, play with bots, randoms or friends, start leagues and even bid together with your partner vs on your own. I also love how you're able to toggle between JJDD and Ace high as well as adjust the rules to how you and your friends play to avoid confusion. Gives very much custom, very demure! 10 out of 10!
The Ultimate Spades App
Black woman on the rise!
This app is the real deal!It truly accommodates all spades players fromThe traditional to JJDD to even NIL (for those that need the handicap 😬). You can invite and play against family/ friends or get a game going with the computer (they even talk smack lol). Download now and share, you won’t be disappointed!
Best Spades App Yet

I’ve played a few other apps and this by far is one of the best. Game play, competitive action, and bugs, which are minimal, are addressed asap. Really solid app!
