Backend Programming: Project

War Card Game

Object Oriented Solution $-$ With GUI

$50$ Points

Project Description:

The purpose of this project is to develop a Card Game program with a Graphical User Interface that the Player can play with the Computer or other player. The program will be written in Java and should have a userfriendly graphical user interface $($GUI$)$ to enhance usability, in addition to save and Capability, so the user can continue the game from where he finished.

Game Rules:

Introduction

War $($also known as Battle in the United Kingdom$)$ is a simple card game, typically played by two players using a standard playing card deck, and often played by children.

$2.$ How to Play

The objective of the game is to win all of the cards.

The deck is divided evenly and randomly among the players, giving each a down stack. In unison, each player reveals the top card of their deck $-$this is a "battle"$-$ and the player with the higher card takes both of the cards played and moves them to their stack. Aces are high, and suits are ignored.

If the two cards played are of equal value, then there is a "war". Both players place the next $2$ cards from their pile face down and then

$2.$ How to Play

The objective of the game is to win all of the cards.

The deck is divided evenly and randomly among the players, giving each a down stack. In unison, each player reveals the top card of their deck $-$this is a "battle"$-$ and the player with the higher card takes both of the cards played and moves them to their stack. Aces are high, and suits are ignored.

If the two cards played are of equal value, then there is a "war". Both players place the next $2$ cards from their pile face down and then another card face$-$up$.$ The owner of the higher face$-$up card wins the war and adds all the cards on the table to the bottom of their deck. If the face$-$up cards are again equal then the battle repeats with another set of face$-$down$/$up cards. This repeats until one player's face$-$up card is higher than their opponent's.

If a player runs out of cards during a war, that player immediately loses. In others, the player may play the last card in their deck as their face$-$up card for the remainder of the war or replay the game from the beginning.

The game will continue until one player has collected all of the cards.

Solution Steps:

Please follow the following steps during the solution:
