Up and Down the River

In February 2008, Solecismic Software branched out into the card game market with a new product based on the popular card game Up and Down the River.

Up and Down the River is the first card game from Solecismic Software, known for its award-winning sports simulations.

Up and Down the River is a popular trick-taking card game. It is also known as "Oh, Heck" or "Oh, Hell" in many areas.

Hand size varies, which is the meaning behind the game's name. A game often begins with a hand of only one card. The next hand is made of up two cards, and so on, until a limit is reached. Players then "go back down the river," starting with the maximum-sized hand and moving down.

With a minimum of one card per hand and a maximum of 10, a full game consists of 20 hands. You can change the game settings to suit your own game length. Download now!
