____ _ __ / ___| ___ | |/ _| | | _ / _ \| | |_ | |_| | (_) | | _| \____|\___/|_|_| PURPOSE: to get the lowest score VALUES: 2-10 = face card value King = 12 Queen = 11 Jack = 0 Ace = 1 SETUP: 2 players 52 cards There is a draw pile, and a discard pile. The draw pile is unkown, the discard pile is what was thrown out by the previous player. Each player receives 4 cards. Cards 1 and 2 are and will be unknown to both of the players, while cards 3 and 4 are seen by both. The owner of cards 1 & 2 may know their value once they are replaced. last step: one card is taken from the draw pile and placed in the discard pile GAMEPLAY: During each turn, the player has 2 initial options: draw a card from the pile (you dont know what it is) or take the top card in the discard pile. If you selected from the draw pile you have 2 more options: replace one of your four cards in order to lower your score or discard the drawn card. If you picked up your card from the discard pile you must replace one of your cards. If you chose to replace a card. Now you have a last option; called KNOCKING. When you KNOCK that means you are done and you are calling your opponent out to see whom has the lowest score; your opponent has one more turn however for a last minute effort, but after that, ALL(1-4) cards are displayed and a winner is chosen based on who has the lowest total point value for all 4 cards. Its a simple game to learn; but takes a lifetime to master.
