A trick-taking game played with a bespoke 53-card deck: three suits of thirteen cards plus fourteen unique special cards, and a set of twenty contract tiles. Play runs seven rounds; each round the dealer reveals a randomly drawn special card, shuffles it into the deck, and deals all cards evenly. The player dealt the 5 of Knights draws a contract tile and selects one of the two scoring rules on it for that round. The holder of the 5 of Goblins leads the first trick. Players must follow suit when able; there is no trump, and the highest card of the led suit wins each trick. After all tricks are played, players total round scores, remove the revealed special card and contract tile, and prepare the next round. Highest total after seven rounds wins.
