The World of Contract Bridge
What is bridge? > It's fun!
Bridge is the world's most widespread card game, which is suitable for everyone regardless of age, gender or status.
Players love bridge for its challenge and sociability. Nettibridge is also social.
Yes, you can learn the game too, because millions around the world already play bridge. You can dose your needs to suit you: You only play at home with friends, you can also go to club nights or even play competitions. Or would you become the next World Champion like Erik Hansson in the under-21 series?!
The gameplay is challenging enough to make it interesting as well. Learning takes a lifetime - you always learn something new, or re-learn what you forgot. Bridge is like riding a bicycle - once you learn it...
You make friends all over the world. Online gaming has raised its head high.
Memory games have been researched to reduce memory disorders in old age.
