Quickfire Rules:
Oh Hell! adheres to the classic rules of trick-taking card games. A card is trumped by a higher card of the same suit or any trump card. Once a card is led, players must follow suit. If unable to follow, they can either Trump to win the trick or Throw Away a non-trump card to lose it.
Each trick won scores one point, while correctly predicting the number of tricks you'll win during bidding earns 10 points per round, or 5 if you bid 0 with the ‘Nil Bid Worth 5’ setting activated.
