KQJ

A point-based trick-taking card game for up to six players, played in teams of three, two, or three. It follows Belote-style rules, adding four Hero cards to the standard King, Queen, and Jack cards. Players choose a trump suit, no-trump, or all-trump contract, then play eight tricks while following suit and trumping when required. The winning card takes the trick, and teams score card values and bonuses for events such as winning the final trick, taking every trick, or announcing KQ or KQJ. Optional auctions and target scores of 500, 1000, or 2000 points provide different ways to structure the game.
