Chicane

a trick-taking Decktet game for 3 to 4 players

In a hand of Chicane, each of the Decktet cards is treated as just having one suit. For the double-suited number cards, only the top or bottom suit is active in a given hand. Players get to call which it will be.

I made substantial revisions to the rules in April 2011, and I decided not to maintain multiple versions. For full rules, see the Decktet Wiki entry.
