Neural net bots trained on human data finally make solo Tichu practice viable.

Strengths
  • Training bots on millions of human games captures nuanced partnership strategies better than rule-based AI.
  • Hybrid approach allows switching between ML opponents and strict rule-based bots for testing.
  • Full implementation of complex Tichu rules including special cards and partnership mechanics.
Weaknesses
  • Niche appeal limits audience to those who already know and love this specific card game.
  • Multiplayer lobbies rely on critical mass of players which is hard to bootstrap for niche titles.
