Durak

Durak or Fool is a simple recreation of a card game by the same name that
is popular in Russia. Each player is served six cards from the deck and then a
trump suite is selected with a card placed under the remaining deck. The goal
of the game is to get rid of one’s cards.

Then players trade attacks in turns, where cards can be beaten by either a
higher rank or a card with the trump suit. Several cards of the matching rank
can be used during the attack, including the ones your opponent used to beat
your cards. If a player can’t beat the cards, he’s gotta take them into his
hand and the attacker has to replenish missing cards from the deck. The last
remaining player is ‘durak’.

As an additional rule, cards of the same rank can be used to redirect the
attack back at the player or pass it down the line if there are several
players. This version includes only the basic variety and only supports one
player against the computer. The cards feature simple graphics and the game is
played using a simple menu with “take”, “beat” and “play” options.
