SecureSkat is a peer-to-peer implementation of the German card game Skat. The program negotiates participating players and game sessions over an arbitrary IRC network (Internet Relay Chat). Neither a trusted third-party (dealer) nor a centralized game server is necessary. All critical operations, e.g. shuffle of the deck, are performed using advanced cryptographic techniques (so-called Mental Poker solutions) provided by LibTMCG. The outdated OpenSkat branch contains a graphical user interface based on XSkat 3.4. This interface can be used with most recent versions, but must be built separately.
