Quickfire Rules

Oh Hell! adheres to the standard rules of trick-taking card games. A card can be beaten by a higher card of the same suit or any trump card. Once a card is played, players must follow suit. If they can't, they have the option to play a trump card to win the trick or any non-trump card to lose it.

Each trick won scores one point, and correctly predicting your trick count at the bidding stage earns you 10 points per round, or 5 if you bid 0 with the ‘Nil Bid Worth 5’ option activated.
