El Tio

Number of player: 3 to 10 players

Goal of the game :Get rid of all your cards before the others 

 

Procedure

Deal four cards to each player face down and place the rest of the deck in the middle of the table

 

Players read their cards but do not show them to other players

 

To start the game, turn over the top card of the draw pile. This card shows the “master” (trump) symbol, put it back face up on the deck

 

From this moment, each player is free to place cards at any time during the game. Either by placing a card of the same symbol (spade, heart, diamond or club) or of the same number as the last card placed. (Possibility to put several cards at the same time if the symbol or the number of the card corresponds well)

Each time a player places one or more cards, he must designate a player by his first name. The game ends if a player designates another player when he has no more cards, he must then finish his entire drink.

 

If no player can lay down any more cards then the last designated person takes two penalties

 

Variation: instead of taking two penalties, the loser rolls two dice, in the event of a double, he distributes them otherwise he takes as many penalties as the sum of the dice.

New game:   distribute the number of missing cards to each player so that each player has four cards,

 

Repeat the game as you wish
