About SANTASE BY FORTEGAMES ( 66 )

Play Santase Online with your friends. Santase (or Sixty six) is very popular card game for two players. The goal of the game is to be the first player to score 66 points. if neither player scores 66 points, the player who take the final card wins. In the game we have only 24 cards ( from 9's to Aces) . Each player get six cards and we flip over one card which is the trump suite

Playing

One player plays a card, then the other player plays a card. High card of the same suit takes the cards. Aces are high. Alternatively, any card of the trump suit takes any card of another suit.

Each player then draws one card from the remaining cards in the deck. Winner draws first.

Kings and Queens

If you have the king and queen of the same suit, you may show it and score 20 points. King and queen of the trump suit scores 40. You may only do this if you are leading the turn (laying down first). Do it at the start of your turn. Leave the queen down and take back the king.

Exchanging the 9

If you have the 9 of the trump suit in your hand you may exchange it for the displayed trump card. But only if you are leading the turn, and only at the start of your turn.

The Run-off

Once no more cards are available in the deck, play proceeds a little differently. The player who won the last hand lays down first. If the other player has a card of the same suit they must play it. If they do not, they must play a card from the trump suit if they have one. As before, play continues until one player scores 66 points or more, or all cards have been taken.

Card Scoring

In Santase, cards have the following values. Note that a ten is more powerful than a jack, queen or king. In other words, a ten takes a jack, queen or king.

9's = 0 points J = 2 points Q = 3 points K = 4 points 10's = 10 points A = 11 points

Closing the Deck

At any point in the game, provided there are at least 3 cards remaining in the deck plus the displayed trump card, a player may close the deck. To do this, turn over the displayed trump card. You must do this at the start of your turn and you must be leading (laying down first). Then the game proceeds as in the "run-off". There is danger in this play. If the player who closed does not score 66 points, the other player scores 3 points for the win.

Game Scoring

The player who wins the game scores one point. If the loser has fewer than 31 points (30 or less), the winner scores two points. If the loser has scored no points, the winner scores three.

Games are played to any point value the players agree on. Typically, the first person to reach 11 points wins.
