The Goal: Simple yet strategic: Avoid being the Durak!
-
The Deck: A 36-card deck (6-Ace) in four suits. Each player starts with 6 cards. A trump suit is randomly determined.
-
Attack & Defend: Players take turns attacking and defending. Attacks can be single or multiple cards of the same rank. Defenders must beat each card with a higher card of the same suit or a trump card. Failure to defend means picking up the cards.
-
The Throw-in: Attackers can add more cards of the same rank to their attack, increasing the pressure on the defender (up to a total of 6 cards).

Trump Advantage: Remember the trump suit! It provides a powerful advantage in defense.

Strategic Defense: Efficient defense is crucial. Conserve high-value cards to counter attacks and turn the tables.
