Your rating:
Complex trick taking game with bidding where 3 (or 4) tricks (past, present, future) are played at the same time. Tricks are resolved in timeline order from past, present to future. First card played to a trick determines which suit has to be followed. For present and future the trick is resolved using the color played by the person who won the previous trick in the timeline--so at resolution time the color may change. There is a fixed trump suit. Everyone has a hand of 12 cards, so it is played over 4 (or 3) rounds. Only who guessed "mostly" correct how many tricks they will take will get points. Difficult teach, best play 1 round of tricks openly to show how it works. Needs players that have a solid grasp of basic trick taking rules.
