Pesten With Cards

Pesten With Cards, a classic Dutch card game literally translating to "Bullying with Cards," offers a thrilling card-shedding experience similar to games like Mau-Mau, Crazy Eights, or Uno. The objective? Be the first to discard all your cards. A crucial rule: declare "Last Card" before playing your final card; failure to do so results in a two-card penalty.

Played with one or more decks (including Jokers), each player receives seven cards, with the remainder forming a draw pile. The top card of the draw pile is revealed to start the game. Players take turns (clockwise) playing cards matching the number or suit of the top card on the discard pile. Jokers and Jacks are exceptions, playable on any card. Unable to play? Draw a card from the draw pile. If playable, you may choose to play it immediately.

The "Last Card" Rule:

When down to your last card, click the "Last Card" button. Forgetting this declaration when playing your winning card incurs a two-card penalty. Incorrectly declaring "Last Card" also results in a penalty. The button can be pressed proactively, even before your turn. Note that your last card cannot be a special card (see below).

Special Cards and Their Actions:

Card actions are customizable, reflecting regional variations. The following actions are available:

• Joker: The next player draws five cards. Each subsequent Joker played adds another five cards to the penalty. A player drawing cards cannot play any of them; the next player proceeds.

• Two: The next player draws two cards. Each subsequent Two played adds two more cards. If enabled in options, a Joker can be played on a Two (adding five cards). Playing a Two on a Joker is not allowed. Drawing cards prevents playing any of them; the next player proceeds.

• Seven: The current player must play another card. Remember to declare "Last Card" if applicable. Failure to play results in drawing a card.

• Eight: The next player skips a turn. In two-player games, the current player gets another turn.

• Ten: Each player passes one card to the player on their left.
