It-DAH-gan

  • Description
    There are 60 cards with ranks from 1 to 15, quantities ranging from two 1's up to six 15's 15 of the cards are worth a point each. All cards are dealt out. The player receiving the 15 marked 'star-DAH' begins by playing any number of 15's. Each player in turn then either passes or plays the same amount of cards as the last set played, but with a lower rank. When all but one players have passed, the last one to play takes all the cards played and starts a new trick with one or more cards of the same rank. The round continues until all players are out of cards then point cards taken are scored. The first player to go out begins the next round by getting the two best (i.e., lowest-numbered) cards from the last player to go out, giving any two in return likewise, the second to go out gets the best card from the next-to-last to go out. (With three players, the first and last to go out exchange one card.) Play continues until one player reaches 50 points. - BoardGameGeek
