Artificial Jass Intelligence

Published October 14, 2025

Jass is the unofficial national card game of Switzerland. I wanted to see how far I could push a computer player without diving into heavy machine learning, so I started building a playground for testing strategies.

The project now contains:

  • A simulation engine that can play thousands of matches and log every move
  • A rule system to keep AIs respectful of the table etiquette

It is about eighty percent done—like any good side project—and keeps pulling me back for another round.
