Naipes de Quito: 40 & 31 Cards

¡Qué fue, mijo! Sit down, the cards are being dealt. Naipes de Quito brings the card games of Ecuador's capital to your phone, the way they're played at the Fiestas de Quito: Cuarenta (40), with its caídas, limpias and classic table sayings, and the family's Thirty-One. FORTY, THE QUITO WAY • One against one, or two against two with a partner. • Take cards by matching, by adding up and by runs. • Caída, limpia, ronda and cartón, with Quito tournament rules. • "38 que no juega!": at 38 you can only win with a caída. • Every play has its saying, in Spanish with the meaning in English: "Con esta te caigo!", "Dos por shunsho!", "Mozero has de ser!"… and lose without reaching 10 and you're a zapatero! • Change the house rules in Settings. A TABLE ON YOUR WI-FI • One phone creates the table and the others tap "Join": the table shows up by itself. • 40 for two or four players; 31 for 2 to 6. • No accounts, no internet, no servers: only phones on the same Wi-Fi. • Android and iPhone play together. If someone's missing, the computer plays that seat. THIRTY-ONE TOO • Get 31 in one suit, knock on the table (knock, knock!) and the lowest hand loses. • Three aces, three 2s, the rope and more house rules. • Play against the computer with 1 to 5 opponents. • Pretend money in 31 against the computer: nobody bets anything real, just their pride. MADE IN QUITO, WITH LOVE • A little Quito dictionary: achachay, arrarray, de ley, ñaño, chulla vida and more. • Quito's flag, the bunting and the colours of the fiestas. • Opponents with neighbourhood names: Don Lucho, Tía Charito, Ñaño Fercho, Veci Toño… • A four-colour deck and large cards, easier on the eyes. • Dedicated to Laura Ortega, the mother and grandmother who taught the whole family to play. • In Spanish and English. Plays offline. ¡Viva Quito!
