Game rules

It uses the Spanish deck containing four suits: Golds, Cups, Swords and Wands.

The deck has 40 cards (with different point values), four players will each get 10 cards.

Each player will then take turn to follow suit and withdraw a card. After each turn, the player with the highest card of the turn or fail to follow suit will have to take all the cards.

The objective of the game is not to get points, in other words make others take the points at every turn.

List of the cards from the highest to lowest within the same suit:

Ace (1), Three (3), King (12), Knight (11), Jack (10), Seven (7), Six (6), Five (5), Four (4) and Two (2).

Points system

In the deck of 40 cards there are 40 points in play per round:

Knight of Cups - 20 points for this particular card.
Gold - 2 points for each Gold card, total of 20 points for the entire suit (10 cards).
The rest of the cards - 0 point.

How to win

Player needs to analyse the situation in attempt to get the fewest points as possible (or avoid getting the cards with points).

When a player exceeds the 100 point limit, the game is over with the player with the fewest points winning.

The winner goes up in Level and the one with the most points drops in Level. In the game options menu you can raise the limit from 100 points to 900 to play longer if you want. Whenever one player's level goes up, another player's level goes down and two remain as they were.

There are 10 levels in total.
