Cribbage is a card game widely enjoyed overseas.

Two players alternately play cards from their hands, with the basic rule being that the running total of the card values must not exceed 31.

During play, various combinations (hands) can be formed to earn points, and additional points are awarded based on the value of a single card called the “starter” drawn from the deck at the beginning, as well as the values of the two cards first discarded from the hand to form the “crib.” The rounds are repeated, and the first player to reach 121 points is the winner.

Zinkreek is a playing-card battle game fought on a 3-by-3 grid of nine squares.

Both players place a Joker on the field and then put an Ace on top of it as a shield to finish setup.

The first player places cards from their hand into a cost area, then attacks with a card whose number matches the number of cards currently in that cost area.

If the attacker’s card is equal to or higher than the target card’s number, the target is destroyed.

In the opening example, because there is one card on top of the Joker and the first player has placed one card in their cost area, the numbers match, so the first player wins that exchange.

The destroyed card is moved to the cost area, and the first player may place one more card into the cost area, which lets the second player play a card worth 2 and destroy the first player’s earlier card.

Repeating this back and forth, the player who manages to successfully attack the opponent’s Joker four times wins.

While cost management and other elements can be complex, the depth of strategy makes this a playing-card game well worth trying.
