How to play

Simple Rules

Each player gets 3 cards. You and the computer play one card per trick. Higher card wins the trick. Win 2 tricks to win the hand. First to 12 points wins the match.

Normal card order

Weak to strong: 4, 5, 6, 7, Q, J, K, A, 2, 3.

Vira and manilha

The vira is flipped after the deal. The next rank becomes manilha. Example: vira is 7, all Qs are manilhas.

Manilha suit order

Among manilhas: ♦ is lowest, then ♠, then ♥, and ♣ is strongest.

What to practice

Try not to waste your best card when a weaker card already wins. Save manilhas for important tricks.
