Three ways to play
52 cards, four players, thirteen tricks. Choose your way when you set the table.
Auction Batak
Each player bids or passes in turn; the highest bidder wins the contract, names trump and leads the first trick. The minimum bid is 4.
Made: 10 × bid + overtricks. Failed: −10 × bid.
Spades Trump
Spades are always trump and there is no auction. Every player bids their own number of tricks once and plays against their own bid.
Make your bid: 10 × bid + overtricks.
Partnership Batak
Players sitting opposite are partners and the auction is on the pair's combined tricks. The minimum bid is 7, made together.
The team's score goes to both partners.
Salons

Frequently asked questions
Is the game free?
Yes, it is free to download and play. You can buy chip packs or a VIP membership in the app if you like; purchases are made only through the App Store and Google Play.
Can I sign in with my North Sultan: 101 Okey account?
Yes. North Sultan games share one account: your chips, VIP membership, level, profile, friends and messages are the same in North Sultan: 101 Okey. If your account is linked to Apple or Google, just sign in to North Sultan: Batak with the same account.
Can I cash out chips?
No. Chips are virtual units used only inside the game; they have no cash value and cannot be exchanged for money or prizes, sold or transferred to other players. Trading chips outside the game is forbidden.
Which rules are used?
Common Turkish coffee-house Batak: 52 cards, four players, 13 cards each. You must follow suit, beat the highest card when you can, and trump when you are void; trump cannot be led until it has been broken. A made contract scores 10 × bid + overtricks, a failed one −10 × bid; a player who takes no tricks at all is "batak". A match is 11 hands. Details: Batak Guide.
Are there computer players at the table?
On open tables, empty seats may be filled by computer-controlled players so the game can start without waiting. Computer players never win anything of real value and only know the cards everyone can see.
How do I delete my account?
In the app: Profile › Delete My Account. If you cannot reach the app, use the web form. As the account is shared by every North Sultan game, deleting it also removes your North Sultan: 101 Okey progress.
