To be able to play Snap Game you need to install external libraries - Tkinter and Pillow.
Tkinter is the standard GUI (Graphical User Interface) toolkit that comes with Python. It provides tools for creating desktop applications with graphical interfaces.
Pillow is a powerful image-processing library for Python.
Both libraries require Python; if you don't already have it, you can download from python.org. It's recommended to run the latest Python version, because it's usually faster and has better features than the older ones.
Step-by-step installation:
- [1] Install the following project -> SnapGameGUI.zip
- [2] Important note! Make sure that the folder with the playing card images is installed in the same location on the disk where the game itself is located
- [3] Install external libraries. The best way to install them is to use the pip tool (which is what python uses to install packages). If you have the latest version of Python, which is Python 3, provide the next command in the terminal:
pip3 install Tkinterandpip3 install Pillow - [4] The last step is: using Windows/Linux commands in your terminal go to the location where you store the installed project and run the following command using Python:
python3 Play.pyto play the simulation version of s Snap Game orpython3 SnapGameGUI.pyto play an interactive version of a Snap Game
The essence of the game is that at the beginning of the round, the game's participants evenly deal with each other cards from a deck consisting of 52 cards. In each round, the participants of the game take turns putting cards on the table, on top of each other, face down so that you can see the card, if the card number of the participant who just put the card matches the card number of the previous participant, the game says - Snap and takes all the cards. The game continues until one player takes all the cards from the other players
Snap game includes 52 playing cards, 12 of each suit, not including jokers. The game can be played in two ways, through the console and through the interactive design. To play the first way, run this file; to play the second way, run that file. In the first option, the minimum number of players is 2, and the maximum is 52, in the second option, the minimum and maximum number of players is 2. In the first option, the game is carried out using the simulation method by printing output to the console, in the second option, by pressing the button - "Next round"
