How it plays
Each hand opens with bidding: say how many points you think you can take, and the winner names trump. Then cards are played trick by trick, with everyone trying to capture the scoring ones. The wild Rook card can land at any moment and flip the outcome. In the four-player version, partners race to be the first team to 300 points.
Two to six players can play, solo or in teams, from age 8 up. Newcomers can start with the beginner rules in the box and move to the regular rules once the table is ready to play for keeps.
