Only a single 2-handed trial game. This is a 2 player only shedding game where you get rid of groups of identical cards and play goes back and forth with each player having to play a same-sized set of higher cards. Until one person passes. The other person leads the next "trick". Cards are numbered from 0 to 9. Each number but the 0 which appears once, apears (10-number) times in the set (I think). You play "hands" until one person scores their 31st point. A player's hands is 15 cards. There are 16 cards in a drawpile. Players can take a "writ" to draw two cards. Card numbered with 3 and 6 have special powers including counters and counter-counters. To me there seemed to be a variety of strategies to determine how to get rid of cards the fastest. Whoever empties their hand scores as many points as the opponent still has in their hand plus number of writs they took. There are a few other scoring opportunities in the game. But mostly points come from being out of cards first.
