À propos des robots
Les robots utilisent un système d'enchères relativement simple et naturel. Pendant le jeu, vous pouvez découvrir la signification de n'importe quelle enchère en cliquant sur cette enchère dans le diagramme des enchères. Lorsque c'est votre tour d'enchérir, le passage de votre souris sur les boutons d'enchère affichera une explication de l'enchère que vous envisagez (telle que votre partenaire robot la comprendra). Ces explications peuvent être quelque peu énigmatiques, mais le fait de les lire attentivement avant d'enchérir vous aidera à éviter les malentendus avec votre partenaire robot.
