PLAYED FOR YOU

Little Devils

Five devils on FIFTEEN

Who wants little devils?! Nobody - And yet those little devils, that is, their heads, they can descend on you, because you must play apt cards and if you get those devil heads they give you penalty points!

54 cards are numbered from 1 to 54 and marked with little devil heads. The first player leads a card of his choice - any but a card with five devil heads. The next player decides with his cards if all other players must play a higher or a lower card than the one that was lead. If the second player plays a higher card, all others must play a higher card than the starting player, but not necessarily higher than their predecessor! If you play the highest card of all you take the trick. In analogy the same rule applies when the second player plays a lower card - then the lowest card of all wins the trick.

If you do not have an apt card to follow this rule you can play to the contrary, Higher instead of lower and vice versa, but this gives you the trick in any case, unless more than one player must play to the contrary, then in case of „higher“ the lowest card wins and in case of „lower“ the highest card of those played against the rule wins the trick. When all cards have been played you count the devil heads in your tricks. If you have amassed 100 or more devil points after several rounds the game ends and the player with the fewest devil points wins.

Little Devils is a cute little, fast card game; the card discarding rule is simple and yet interesting; basically, all depends on the cards that one is dealt and yet some tactics are possible, especially with a good memory for cards and numbers.
