Designed by Ken Fisher 1983. Published 1986 by Bicycle and US Games. 1996 it was licensed to Amigo-Spiele for a German version. For 3-6 players and takes about 20 minutes to play. With a 60 card deck comprising a standard deck plus 4 Wizards (high) and 4 Jesters (low). In the first hand 1 card is dealt to each player. In the second 2 and so on. The game is over after the hand in which all cards are dealt. After examining your cards you state the number of tricks you will win. Each round each player puts down one card. The first Wizard played wins the trick followed by the highest trump card followed by the highest card in the suit of the first card played. You get 20 points for correctly predicting how many tricks you will win plus 10 points for each trick won. You lose 10 points for each trick over or under the amount you predicted.
