Smile Hearts card game missing in Ubuntu 18.04


I recently did a clean install of ubuntu 18.04 and my favorite card game Hearts is missing. Is there a place where I can download it?

Hi:

I did a Ubuntu package search and I was surprised I couldn't find Hearts.

Did you try looking in your Software Center or Synaptic?

It is not in the software center. I am not familiar with synaptic. I am looking for a way I can just download it the same way as i did 16.04.

I assume you were using the gnome-hearts package which is not available in version 18. That is about all I know...

See if it's in Synaptic Package Manager.

I looked everywhere where I knew to look. I don't think it's available for Bionic yet.

Try looking and asking here:

Or roll back to 16.04, which is what I did, but not only for Hearts. It just works a whole lot better generally.

A new hearts card game

I just released my personnal project: A Hearts card game for linux / QT.

Give it a try. It require QT 5, liballegro 5 (for sounds support), and it's a QT Creator project.
I developped it under ubuntu 16.04, but it should works on any linux.

It's a beta version, but it's fully functionnal with some games options.
