MiniBridge is a simplified version of Bridge, designed to introduce beginners to the game without the need to learn the complex bidding rules. Instead, the contract is always decided by the declarer, making it easier for players to focus on the gameplay and strategy. The auction phase is reduced to a minimum by using point count to determine who is going to be the declarer and dummy. Declarer then decides the contract after seeing the dummy hand. Everything you learn in MiniBridge is relevant to real Bridge i.e. counting your points, how to play the cards, game and part score contracts, scoring etc.
