Spooneye! The Card Game

Any card may be played upon any mast, as long as it does not cause the mast to total more than 21. The values of the cards are as follows:


cardvalue
A1
2-10Face Value
Q,K10
J?

 

Jacks are special. A Jack is worth 10 if it is the bottom card in its mast. If not, it assumes the value of the card directly underneath it.

The suit of a card never affects its value in either the Basic or Standard Game.



Turn 1M: Matey draws the 5, and then plays the J on the 8, building a mast that totals 16. If he had played the Jack on either the 10 or the King, the resulting mast would equal 20; if played on the Ace, the resulting mast would equal only 2.
