Description

Skat (the A is long, like in "Ah!") is Germany's traditional card game for 3 or 4 players. Combining elements of Bridge, Hearts, Euchre, Pinochle, and Poker it is the most exciting card game in the world!

Here is what Joseph Wergin in his book on Skat and Sheepshead says about the game:

"Skat is, undoubtedly, the best of all card games as it combines in a remarkable way the elements of both chance and skill. Although upon first exposure it may seem difficult, it is actually quite simple when the component parts are analyzed separately. Skat attracts dedicated card players because it requires them to utilize the full range of their cardplaying ability. Card addicts who have mastered the ordinary games will be delighted to discover the new challenges offered by this unique game.

The box includes a valuable how-to-play instruction booklet, a deck of Skat cards for beginners that eases the transition from anglo-american to German face cards which are commonly used in Skat tournaments, four shiny game reference cards, and 50 double sided score sheets with instructions. This makes a great gift for friends and family!
