Qatari Cards

Qatari Cards is the first app dedicated to the authentic Qatari trick-taking card game — a tradition enjoyed for generations in homes and majlis gatherings across Qatar and the Gulf region.

GAMEPLAY

• Classic trick-taking for 4 or 6 players with a 32-card deck (7 through Ace, plus one wild card)
• Strategic bidding system (Mazaad) where you compete to declare the trump suit
• The wild card is the most powerful in the deck, but holding it at the wrong moment can cost you the round
• Shared score system: one score, one owner, and the team holding it at 32 loses
• Authentic Qatari rules and scoring
