Sweep the Deck 🃏
A multiplayer card game built with React Native, Expo, and Firebase.
Game Rules
Object
To "go out" by playing all of your cards. AKA "Sweeping your opponent." If it's 1vs1 and a 1 round game, you lose. If you're one of the other players the goal is to be left with as few points in your hand as possible.
Required Cards
Enough standard playing cards so each player can be dealt 20 total cards:
- For 3, 4, or 5 players: two 52-card decks (without jokers)
- For 6 or 7 players: three decks
- For 8, 9 or 10 players: four decks
A Set
A set is four or more cards of the same value. When this occurs the player can "Clear the Deck" (remove all the cards in the center pile) and takes an additional turn. Suits are not used in this game.
Card Values
King is high and Ace is low.
Scoring
The player who goes out receives zero points for that round. The other players will be awarded points based on values of the cards remaining in their hand.
Point Values:
- Numbered cards: face value
- King: 13 points
- Queen: 12 points
- Jack: 11 points
- Ace: 1 point
- Tens held at the end: 25 points!
After each round, the player with the lowest total score is the winner.
