Classic:
This is a game for two teams of two players each. Players use 32 cards from a standard 52 cards pack, ranging from 7 to Ace in each suit. From the remaining cards, 12 cards are divided equally among the two teams for counting score. A team aims to collect all 6 cards from the opponent team by outscoring them.
Dealing and Bidding: The dealer provides 8 cards to each player in two steps. In the first step, he hands out four cards to each player in counterclockwise order. Each player bids based on their four cards. The bids go from 14 to 28. After getting the 1st round's highest bidder, the second round of dealing and bidding begins. The final highest bidder chooses the Trump suit and keeps aside faced down and the game begins.
Gameplay: The first player leads a suit and others follow. The highest card wins the trick. Players must follow suit, if unable to follow, they play a trump card or a card of another suit. The bidder can't lead trumps until revealed.
Scoring: If you bid 19 or less, you only get 1 point for winning and lose 1 point for losing. If you bid 20 to 23, you get 2 points for winning and lose 2 points for losing. If you bid 24 to 27, you get 3 points for winning and lose 3 points for losing. 28 bids win 4 points, lose -4 points. The higher the bid, the higher the stakes.
ADVANCED MODE:
The cards and points are the same as Classic mode. The difference is in the bidding. Players get four cards and bid 14 to 28. The winner picks a trump suit with four cards.
Gameplay: The player on the dealer's right starts the first trick, and the rest must match the suit of the card played if they have it. The trick goes to the highest-ranking card of the suit, and the winner starts the next trick. Players must follow suit if possible: if unable to follow, they may play a trump card or discard a card of another suit, as they like.
Scoring: After all eight tricks have been played in a round, all sides count the card points in the tricks they have won. The bidding team needs at least as many card points as they bid to win; otherwise, they lose the round. The score of the team playing against the bidder does not change.
Single Hand: A player with strong cards can try to win all the tricks by playing solo. There is no trump and the partner does not play. The team gets 3 points for success or loses 3 points for failure.
Common special feature for both game modes:
Marriage Cards: The "King and Queen" two cards of the trump suit in a hand, is called Marriage. This pair-rule increases or decreases the bid value by 4 points. The pair should be shown only when the trump card has been revealed and either party takes a hand after the trump card has been shown.
The game is canceled if:
• Any player has no point in hand
• Any player has 8 zero-point cards
• Any player has all four Jacks
• Any player has one suit only
• The dealer's next has no point
