๐Ÿƒ How to Play Jass

๐ŸŽฏ Objective

First team to 2,500 points wins the match! You play with a partner (North) against two AI opponents. Points accumulate over many rounds.

๐ŸŽด The Deck

36 cards: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K, A in all four suits (โ™  โ™ฅ โ™ฆ โ™ฃ). Each player gets 9 cards per round.

๐Ÿท๏ธ Bidding โ€” Choose Trump

Starting left of the dealer, each player may name a trump suit or Pass. If all four pass, the dealer must choose. The player who declares trump leads the first trick.

โšก Card Values

Trump suit: J (Jass) = 20 โ€ข 9 (Nell) = 14 โ€ข A = 11 โ€ข 10 = 10 โ€ข K = 4 โ€ข Q = 3 โ€ข others = 0

Non-trump: A = 11 โ€ข 10 = 10 โ€ข K = 4 โ€ข Q = 3 โ€ข J = 2 โ€ข others = 0

The team that wins the last trick gets a +5 bonus.

๐ŸŒŸ Weis (Melds)

Before the first trick, declare any melds:

  • 3-card sequence (same suit) = 20 pts
  • 4-card sequence = 50 pts
  • 5+ card sequence = 100 pts
  • Four of a kind (non-Jacks) = 100 pts
  • Four Jacks = 200 pts

Only the team with the highest single meld scores their Weis. Ties go to the team that declared trump.

๐ŸŽฏ Playing Tricks

  • Must follow suit if you can
  • If you can't, must play trump if you have it
  • Otherwise, play any card
  • Highest trump wins; otherwise highest card of the led suit wins
