Sueca

Sueca is an engaging point-trick card game beloved in Portuguese-speaking communities.

Popular in Portugal, Brazil, Angola, Macao, Mozambique, Nagasaki, and Goa, Sueca is a four-player game where participants form two teams of two.

The goal of Sueca is to win the most tricks. Play uses a 40-card deck, which is a standard 52-card deck with the 8s, 9s, and 10s removed. Card ranks from highest to lowest are Ace, 7, King, Jack, Queen, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2. Points are assigned as follows: Ace (11 points), 7 (10 points, called “manilha”), King (4), Jack (3), Queen (2), and all other cards (0).

Winning a trick awards the player the combined point value of the cards it contains. The highest card of the trump suit always takes the trick.

The two-player version is known as Bisca, a game very similar to Sueca. Bisca is also available in this app.
