In a nutshell

Five players fighting over 20 face cards
in a team-based trick-taking duel.

The Napoleon team (Napoleon + Adjutant) faces the Allied team, battling for face cards across 10 tricks. Can Napoleon hit the number they declared? That gamble is the heart of the game.

👤 5 players (you + 4 opponents) 🎴 20 face cards up for grabs 🃏 10-trick format ⚔️ Napoleon team vs Allied team

The Adjutant is secret. Whoever holds the single card Napoleon names is their ally — but nobody knows who that is until the card hits the table. Every hand becomes a mind game of hunting for allies while hiding your own identity.

Depth · The real rules

From bidding to scoring, the full rules, nothing cut.

Bidding Name the Adjutant Widow exchange Play (10 tricks) Scoring

Special cards, done right

The Almighty (♠A) is the strongest card. Lead the Joker to make a trump call (choose from three strength levels), plus the Right / Counter Jack and the five-of-a-suit Same-Two — all faithfully recreated.

How bids rank

Highest count wins. On a tie, suit breaks it: ♠>♥>♦>♣. A bold high bid or a safe minimum — reading nerve against caution is what decides the round.

House rules

Trump-free No-Trump (NT), the sweep-all-20 Revolution, Sway (♥Q beats the Almighty), the Joker Call and more — even how you play is yours to choose.

Character · Personality

24 opponents that make every table feel different.

Each personality talks and plays like a different person. Everyone carries three or more lines per moment, and speech bubbles shift with their mood through bidding, key cards, and wins or losses.
