Briscolone

Briscola is a traditional Italian trick-taking card game played with a 40-card deck. Each match uses a single trump suit (the Briscola), and players compete to capture valuable cards across a series of quick tricks. Card rankings are unconventional — Aces and Threes carry the most points — and players are not required to follow suit, which makes timing and card management more important than simply playing the highest card.

This version presents the classic two-player experience with straightforward rules and clear scoring. Matches are short, the total deck contains 120 points, and the first player to reach 61 wins.

Includes many variations of Briscola, including Briscola Scoperta (open-handed), Briscolone (5 cards in a hand), Bidding variations, and more.

Standard Scoring:

Ace(11 pts)
