Flamenco

Flamenco is a passionate dance performed in theaters in the Seville region of Spain.

This game is a “climbing game” in which players must play higher cards while maintaining the state set by the previous player. As in traditional climbing games, a player must play the same number of cards with a higher value in order to beat the previous play.

However, a stylish step allows a single card to be split into two. An even-numbered card can be beaten by two cards whose combined value equals half of that card. If two even-numbered cards are played, they may be beaten with four cards; if three even-numbered cards are played, they may be beaten with six cards.

The highest number is 7, and under normal circumstances it cannot be beaten. However, the dazzling step of playing 1 and 2 together can defeat it. This combination, called the “Ultimate Praise,” cannot be beaten by any other play.

Players score points according to the order in which they empty their hands. After the designated number of rounds has been completed, the player with the most points wins.
