User summary:

A draft-then-trick taking card game with several twists. Players are dealt a hand of cards that are drafted (keep one card, sent the rest to the next player, repeat until you only get one card). Once each player has a hand, four rounds of trick taking are held, where the card with the highest power wins the trick and gets the round's stone (drawn at random from the pool prior to the drafting). However, each card also has a special power, and the most powerful cards require the player to either pay up coins or having played card of specified colours in earlier rounds.

Once one or more players has 5 stones, the game ends, and points are calculated. Only stones are worth points, the more of the same colour you have, the more points. Most points wins.
