#78: Was Sticht?

Was Sticht? offers a nominally normal trick-taking game turned on its ear. First all of the cards are dealt out face-up, players claim the card they want, and then the dealer explains which card would have won the trick. Once everyone has all of their cards, the actual hand is played with the revealed trump (color and suit). Finally, players may be trying to win the hand, the last trick, or no trick at all - depending on what objectives they selected at the start.
