Skull Queen
You want to position your pirates advantageously on the plank by playing tricks; you have a plank and one pirate pawn in each of four card colors. For a round, 50 cards are evenly dealt, an eventual rest is placed openly on the table. Then you decide, based on your hand, how you place your plank – high numbers toward you on the broad side or away from you on the narrow side – and place your four pirates. Then you play one trick with following suit and evaluate it: When there is only one card of a color on the table, it is put into the middle; then, whoever played the highest card in a color, moves their pirate one step towards the narrow end of the plank, and for the lowest card one step towards the broad end. When the highest card of a color is on the table, no pirate is moved. When all hand cards are played, you score for each pirate the points of the slot he sits on. After as many rounds as there are players you win with most points.
