Presteign: /* Hand Rankings */

=== All In ===

In this tactical bluffing game for 2-5 players, players use the powers of the Foretellers to manipulate their hands. The goal is to either hold the strongest hand at the end of the round or correctly predict the winner to collect the most runes.

=== Gameplay ===
The game consists of 3 rounds. In each round, players aim to build a set of 5 cards in front of them.

* '''Setup:''' Each player is dealt 5 cards. 4 cards are placed face-up in the "Market" frame.
* '''Player Turns:''' On your turn, you must play exactly 1 card in one of two ways:
** '''To your Hand:''' Place the card face-down in front of you. This becomes part of your final 5-card hand.
** '''To the Market (Ability):''' Place the card face-up in the market to immediately trigger its special ability (e.g., swapping cards, drawing, or changing the market).
* '''Prediction:''' Once everyone has only 1 card left in hand, players secretly place their '''Prediction Token''' on the player (themselves or an opponent) they believe will hold the strongest hand.
* '''Showdown:''' Everyone reveals their final 5-card hand.

=== Hand Rankings ===
Hand strength follows standard Poker rankings (from highest to lowest):
# '''Straight Flush''' (Five cards in numerical order of the same suit)
# '''Four of a Kind'''
# '''Full House''' (Three of a Kind + Pair)
# '''Flush''' (Five cards of the same suit)
# '''Straight''' (Five cards in numerical order, regardless of suit)
# '''Three of a Kind'''
# '''Two Pair'''
# '''One Pair'''
# '''High Card''' (Ties are broken by the rune value)

=== End of Game & Scoring ===
After the showdown, runes are awarded:
* '''Strongest Hand:''' The player with the best hand receives runes based on the rank of their combination.
* '''Correct Prediction:''' Players who predicted the winner correctly receive bonus runes. Successfully predicting your own win yields an extra bonus.
* '''Winner:''' After 3 rounds, the player with the most runes wins.

Presteign: /* Gameplay */

== Game Overview ==
dnup is a dynamic card game where card values constantly change by flipping them. Players attempt to be the first or second person to discard all hand cards to collect points. The game ends as soon as a player reaches a total of '''4''' points. Interaction and tactical rotations define the fast-paced gameplay.

== Setup ==
At the start, each person receives 6 cards (for 2 or 3 players: 7 cards). Each card has different values from '''1''' to '''10''' at the top and bottom. The orientation of cards in your hand may not be changed at will during the game.

== Gameplay ==
A turn always consists of two consecutive phases:

'''1. Phase: Discarding cards'''

If your own cards from the previous round are still on the table in front of you, move them to the general discard pile in the center of the table.

'''2. Phase: Choosing an action'''

You must perform exactly one of the following four actions:

* '''Action A: Playing cards'''
Play a set (one or more cards of the same value) in front of you. Important: Your set must beat '''all''' other sets currently on the table ''of the same size''.
* '''Action B: Adding a card'''
You can add exactly one matching card from your hand to another player's set to increase its size. The new combined set must now beat any set on the table of its new size.
* '''Action C: Taking cards'''
Take an entire set from another player. Rotate these cards by '''180 degrees''' and add them to your hand. This action is only allowed if it does not exceed your hand limit.
* '''Action D: Rotating hand'''
Rotate your entire hand of cards by '''180 degrees'''. This changes the values of all your cards simultaneously. Your turn ends immediately after this action.

== Beating Sets ==
A set is stronger than another if:
* It consists of '''more cards''' (Example: Two 2s beat one 10).
* It has a '''higher numerical value''' if the number of cards is equal (Example: One 9 beats one 4).

As soon as a set is beaten, the affected player must '''immediately''' take those cards from the table, rotate them '''180 degrees''', and add them back to their hand.

== Special Rules ==
* '''Hand limit:'''
You may never have more than '''10 cards''' in your hand. Actions that would cause you to exceed this limit are not permitted.
* '''The "dnup" announcement:'''
As soon as you have only '''1 card''' left in your hand, you must shout '''"dnup"'''. If you forget to do so before the next player begins their turn, you must draw '''2 penalty cards''' and rotate them '''180 degrees''' immediately.

== Scoring ==
A round ends when two players have emptied their hands.
* The first person receives '''2 points'''.
* The second person receives '''1 point'''.
The first player to reach '''4''' points wins the game.
