INTRODUCTION OF QUODLIBET 안전놀이터

Quodlibet is a four player trick taking game from the 1800’s that is still played in Austria today.  This game is considered a drinking game and a popular choice for college aged students.  As you will see, this game is played over a a dozen rounds and there are a dozen different ways to play.  Combine this with drinking, and you will come to see why this game is so popular at universities.

While typically played with German suited cards, this game is easily played with an adjusted French suited deck.

THE CARDS & THE DEAL

In order to play Quodlibet with a French deck, you will need to remove the 2’s through the 6’s.  This leaves the 7’s up through the Aces.  

To determine who will be the first dealer and the scorekeeper, each player should take a card from the draw pile.  The player who has the lowest card deals first and keeps score for the game.

The dealer should shuffle the cards thoroughly and dole out eight cards to each player. 

THE PLAY

After dealing and looking at their hand, the dealer may choose one of the four contracts belonging to the first round.  After the contract is completed, the deal passes to the next player on the left, and they can choose one of the three remaining contracts after the cards have been dealt.  This continues until all four contracts have been completed.

When beginning the second round, a new set of contracts become available to choose from.  The same goes for round three.  At the beginning of a new round, whoever has the highest score becomes the first dealer.  Deal passes to the left for each new contract.  

A running score is kept throughout the entire game.   

When playing through the trick taking contracts, typical trick taking rules apply.  Begin with the player on the left side of the dealer.  Other players must follow suit if able.  If they cannot follow suit, they may play any card of their choice.

THE CONTRACTS

BAD NEIGHBOR

During this contract, players are trying to win as many tricks as possible, but this time the points that you earn go to the player on your left.  They are added to their score.  How bad of a neighbor will you be?
