Description

Oh boy! A Gachapon parlor! And here I am with a pocket full of coins! Look at all the cool toys! I MUST COLLECT THEM ALL!

In Gachapon Trick, the lead player may play any card they choose. The next player must follow that suit if they can, but may play any suit if they cannot.

The following players must follow any of the suits already played if possible.

The highest rank of the most represented suit wins the trick. If there is a tie for the most represented suit, the higher rank wins. If there is still a tie, the later played of the tied cards wins.

The winning player MUST purchase at least one card from the trick, but MAY buy as many as they want. The winner places the cards they purchased face up in front of themself. The winner MAY also buy the top card of the deck for ¥500 - only once per trick.
