How to play

Standard cards

The “ Sota ” game is played with Spanish cards, just like “Ronda”.

The Spanish cards game has 40 cards.

Dheb or oros (gold) = 10 cards including Sota

Khel or bastos (baton) = 10 cards

Copas (cut) = 10 cards

Sbada (sword) = 10 cards

For the game " Sota ", 37 cards are selected, since 3 cards are removed before

The start of the game (more precisely: 3 valets)

Fantastic cards

In addition to standard cards, the game has 8 fantastic cards, 2 of each color. If

A pair of fantastic cards is brought together at the same player, it will have a

specific power:

- "skull": allows you to choose who from the opponents will not play around

following.

- "fairy": allows you to see who among the opponents holds the card equivalent to the

Card chosen.

- "Assassin": allows you to select 2 cards (instead of 1) from the opponents:

The first from the previous opponent, the second from the opponent

following.

- "Guide": allows the player to know who, among the players holds the Sota card.

Standard cards and fantastic cards are mixed and distributed between

Players. Each player sees his cards only. A light beam announces what

player in hand to play.

In turn, and in the opposite sense of the movement of the needles of a watch, the player

Who has the hand selects a returned card from the previous player. If he finds himself

With a map of the same row (ex: 2 aces), he poses, if he wishes, the 2 cards in terms of

game and gradually empty his hand. Otherwise, the card drawn from the other player will be

Added to other cards in his possession. The round then passes to the next player. Among

The distributed cards are 8 fantastic cards. If a player manages to bring together a pair of

These cards, it has a specific power (see above).

If a player finds all the standard cards and ends up with a fantastic card

At the end of the game, he gave it to the following player (and not to the previous player) and thus wins the

part.
