DonkeyCat’s Schnopsen

One could find them huddled over a table in an Austrian pub: Card game players spellbound by the Schnapsen cards stacked on the table. The traditional Austrian game, played for centuries, has never lost its appeal and now it has even become an online multi-player game available via Facebook and mobile app. Schnapsen is a rather fast two-person card game, enjoyed especially in the region of the former Austro-Hungarian monarchy. It is also played in Germany, with slightly different rules, where it is called Sixty-six, because players have to collect 66 point as fast as possible.
