Hi,
I am the main developer of Ludii and I appreciate your message. Currently, we acknowledge that Ludii does not handle card games well. However, since 2018, our team has been working towards the goals of the Digital Ludeme Project (http://ludeme.eu/) which is funding Ludii. As a result, we have not been able to prioritize card games as much as we would like.
Starting in September, I will be joining a new research lab and will begin working on several new projects that will use Ludii, including one that focuses on improving Ludii's ability to handle card games. While I cannot give you a precise timeline for when this will happen since it will not be my primary work, please be assured that we will eventually cover card games more comprehensively.
Regarding your comment about Ludii's agents not being able to handle hidden information as well as humans, this is a challenging problem in General Game AI. It is also one of my priorities at the new lab, but it may take some time, possibly even requiring a new PhD thesis.
In the meantime, I encourage you to send me the rules of the game you would like to implement. I can take a look and let you know if it is still possible to do so. If not, Ludii will eventually be the tool you are looking for, but it may take a few more years for us to address these issues.
Thank you for your interest in Ludii!
