Papayoo

Publisher: Gigamic

french version

In this card game, there are no jacks, queens, or kings, but a fifth suit, called Payoo, plus a funny dice. How to score as few points as possible?

By avoiding collecting those damn Payoos and especially the Papayoo, that damn 7 whose color changes (damn it!) with each round...

Not happy with the deal?

No problem, you give cards to your left before starting. But make the right choices, because they will be replaced by the "gift" coming from the right...

Then you play the game but without trumps and without scruples, not sure that the best wins!

Papayoo, an invigorating alternative to all traditional card games.

Principle of the game

At the beginning of each game, players decide the number of turns (4 rounds last about 30 minutes).

The dealer starts the first trick by throwing the card of his choice, face up, in the center of the table.

The other players then take turns playing clockwise, imperatively following the suit requested by the first.

If the player does not have the requested suit in his hand, he discards another card of his choice.

The one who has played the highest card in the requested suit picks up the trick and starts the next trick.

If no player can call in the requested suit, it is the player who started the trick who collects the cards.

At the end of the last trick, the players count their points.

Each Payoo is worth its own value, the Papayoo is worth 40 points, and the other cards are worth nothing.
