    \$\begingroup\$ well when I get some more time I will give a much more thorough review of the code but I find a few things wrong with your inheritance rules. A super class of Player being implemented by Computer and Human is a good thing. However Player not being abstract is a good way for a mistake. A deck extending a card, or vise versa does not make sense. a deck is a collection of cards, but does not extend it. Work on those for now \$\endgroup\$ Commented Apr 16, 2014 at 3:33

I'm probably missing a fair bit, but these are the things I picked up on:


Why does Card extend Deck? They are both objects in their own right and don't require inheritance.

If Player is intended to be an object it shouldn't have any static variables or methods. You might also want to consider making it an abstract class as you don't want to be able to make a new Player, you only want to be able to make a new instance of Player such as a Human or a Computer

You seem to be calling Player.sip() five times in a row manually. To make things easier, I would create another sip() method which takes an int parameter of how many times you want to do it, i.e:

public void sip(int times) {
    for (int i = 0; i < times; i++) {
        sip();
    }
}

Your rhyme words algorithm is entirely wrong. Firstly, you are only checking if the first element in the array of words contains the answer (which it won't, unless they type the same String five times)

if(RHYME_WORDS[0].contains(rhymeAnswer)) {

I would change RHYME_WORDS to be a HashSet which actually has a contains method which will do what you are trying to achieve.

Consider extracting each of the different card types to its own private method, so you don't just have one massive block of code, and it will make testing each one easier.

I'm not entirely convinced your program works how you want it to at the moment. You should usually make sure you get everything working how it should be before you consider submitting it for code review, as we're not here to test it for you we are here to offer advice on improvement.

Hopefully the points I've raised will give you some direction towards improvement, and then you can keep working on it and report back if you need more help.

  • ArrayList<String>compGender = new ArrayList<>(); should be declared (on the left side) as a List<String> (keep the higher abstraction where possible). Also be careful with spacing; it does compile correctly here, but it could lead to serious problem elsewhere.

  • In Deck, public static ArrayList<Card> cards should not be static. And the constructor should be public.

  • Collections.shuffle(cards, new Random()); Collections.shuffle(cards, new Random(System.nanoTime())); should be replaced by just one Collections.shuffle(cards, random) where random is a static Random member of Deck.

  • In Deck, you should just have one method that both gets and removes the card in one atomic operation. You can get in some weird states otherwise.

  • Player.draw should not be static.

  • In Rules, CATEGORY_WORDS and RHYMES words should just be static final member variables.

  • In Rules, the long series of if's should be one switch statement. Also, you iterate over all cards, but I assume you really want to process the player input.

  • Rules should not extend KingsCupGame. Likely it should be a member (composition) within KingsCupGame.

I did not go over everything. You should read more material about both inheritance and static because you seem to use those two concepts randomly.

  • The indentation within Card is a little weird, but especially inconsistent with everything else in the other classes. If you follow the Java style guide closely, such things shouldn't stand out so easily.

  • rank and suit should be private as they shouldn't be exposed to the public interface like that. They should also be final so that they cannot be modified after initialization (it doesn't make sense to change a card's value later on, and it could make the code error-prone).

  • You already shuffle the deck upon initialization, but shouldn't the user also be able to shuffle the deck without recreating it? In some games, I believe, the deck can be shuffled with the existing cards, up to a certain point. Having a separate method for this will help make the class more usable.

    public void shuffle() {
        Collections.shuffle(cards, new Random());
        Collections.shuffle(cards, new Random(System.nanoTime()));
    }
    

    Also, in order to avoid duplicating code, have the constructor call this instead.
