	~~Beginning with~~ the ~~start~~ player~~, play a~~ turn:		A game consists of as many rounds as there are players. A round is made up of individual hands where one player will win the trick. During a hand each player will take one turn with the following steps:

	*1. Play a card and declare the observed color		# Play a card and declare the observed color (see below)
	*2. Place a player token on the corresponding space on the research board		# Place a player token on the corresponding space on the research board
	*3. Determine winner of trick (See below)

	~~Repeat playing turns until there is only '''one card''' left in your hand.~~

	~~===Check the winner of the trick===~~
	~~The player who played the highest rank card in trump (red) wins the trick. If no trump was played, the highest rank card in the led suit wins the trick.~~

	~~The player who played the winning card leads the next trick.~~
