Deck of Card For Bluffing Game

Abstract

A deck of cards for a bluffing-type card game where the deck consists of a plurality of positive cards (called Blue cards) and a plurality of negative cards (called Red cards) and the game begins with a deck, with the first player drawing a card and indicating to the second player in order whether the first player wants to keep the card or not. Without showing the drawn card to any player, the second player then opts to either accept the drawn card or make the first player keep it. Play continues with the first player drawing against the next player and after the first player has drawn to all other players, the deck rotates to the second player and the second player begins by drawing against the next player in order. The game continues until all cards in the deck have been played. The deck also includes a plurality of penalty cards, called Wrath cards, and a plurality of relief cards called Mercy cards. The penalty and relief cards are drawn from the deck and bluffed by the player just like the positive and negative cards. The Wrath cards are deducted from the highest positive point cards on each player's table at the end of the game—and the Mercy cards are deducted from the players highest point negative cards at the end of the game.
