Description
Jass is a point trick-taking game that's all about strategy and skill. Played with 3 to 4 players, it's a 45-minute game that's easy to learn for those familiar with board games. The game uses a unique 36-card deck with suits like bells, shields, acorns, and flowers, but you can also use a regular French deck with some adjustments. What sets Jass apart from other trick-taking games is its unique rules and features. When trumps are involved, the card ranks and values change, adding a new layer of complexity to the game. Players can also play trump on a non-trump lead, even if they have the lead suit in their hand. The game also features the "Weis", which allows players to announce sets of cards and score points. With its normal complexity and engaging gameplay, Jass is a fun and challenging game for fans of card games and trick-taking mechanics.
