Hakka Cards is a trick-taking game for 4 players which
dates back to the Ming Dynasty (1368 - 1644) in China.
The cards contain 4 suits, namely Sup, Gon, Zok and
Sin in descending ranking. Each suit has a total of
nine cards with numerical values 1 to 9. An additional
card is called "Wan Sin," which has a numerical value
of 1 but does not belong to any suit.
Each hand of the game consists of 4 phases, namely
Dealing, Calling, Playing and Scoring. Your goal in
the game is to win 6 or more tricks so as to score
points. To win tricks, you can form the following
patterns with the cards in your hand:
Run - 3 or more cards of the same suit and consecutive
numbers (first ranked by suit and then by number)
Set - 3 or more cards of the same number (ranked by
number)
Single Card - a card of the highest ranking suit in
your hand must be played (ranked by number)
