Escopa de 15

The scopa (Italian scopa) is a card game (deck) of Italian origin, introduced in Brazil by Italian immigrants in the early 20th century.

The purpose of this game is to make the most number of tricks and scopes, in order to obtain first the number of points agreed.

The trick is done by reaching 15 points, by means of a combination of a (only one) hand card and one or more cards from the table. When the player manages to add the 15 points, he collects all the cards used to obtain the trick and places them on his side, face down.

The scopa is made when the discarded card, added to all the cards of the table, forms 15 points. Whenever you get a scopa, turn one of your cards up so that, in the end, you can identify the number of scopes made during the game.

Hope you like it and good game;)
