Schadenfreude
Players play a trick-taking card game for 3–5 people where the second-highest card of the led suit wins each trick. The game uses a no-trump, must-follow structure and includes some ranks with negative values. The trick winner collects their played card plus any cards that failed to follow suit into a personal score pile, but only one copy of each rank can be kept; if a duplicate would be collected both copies are discarded. Hands end with players summing the ranks in their score pile for points, and the overall game ends when a player exceeds 40 points; the player closest to 40 without going over wins.
