Hakka Cards is a trick-taking game for 4 players which dates back to the Ming Dynasty (1368 – 1644) in China. The cards contain 4 suits, namely Sup, Gon, Zok and Sin in descending ranking. Each suit has a total of nine cards with numerical values 1 to 9. An additional card is called "Wan Sin," which has a numerical value of 1 but does not belong to any suit.
Each hand of the game consists of 4 phases, namely Dealing, Calling, Playing and Scoring. Your goal in the game is to win 6 or more tricks so as to score points. To win tricks, you can form the following patterns with the cards in your hand:
Run - 3 or more cards of the same suit and consecutive numbers (first ranked by suit and then by number)
Set - 3 or more cards of the same number (ranked by number)
Single Card - a card of the highest ranking suit in your hand must be played (ranked by number)
Note that the 9s of all suits, the 1 of Sup, the 1 of Sin and the Wan Sin are also called the "Elder cards" at the start of the game
