HOKM

THE PERSIAN GAME OF TRUMPS

[How to Play]

Four rules. Every hand a duel.

Flip each card to learn a rule. Then call a trump yourself and watch the trick change hands.

[Try It]

You're the Hakem. Call it.

Same four cards, four different winners. A lowly three of trump beats a king of anything.

[ACTIVE HOKM] Diamonds
TRICK PREVIEWLED // HEARTS

Every round, each player sits in one of these spots. The Hakem moves when the deal does.
