A mod that adds a real-time card game called "Flin".
➡️ To start speak to a random NPC about a "game of Flin". You need a deck of cards to play which you can get from a publican. After you settled for some money, you can start the game by placing down the deck and activating it.
💡 To view you hand and play a card you need to press a key (default `O` key)
💡 To head a trick, activate the card played by the NPC (or press the hand key again)
Features
- NPCs can explain the rules to you
- NPCs will walk towards where you start the game to play and will move back to their positions when the game ends
- NPCs actually are better and worse at the game depending on their Intelligence and Willpower
- NPCs with a lot of Strength and not a lot of INT play more aggressively, while NPCs with a high endurance play more defensively
Rules
The rules are the same as Schnapsen (or sometimes called 66)
- Each player starts with a hand of 5
- Then players try to take tricks (trump or a higher value wins)
- If you win the trick, you get to go again and win the card values
- You win if you have 66 or more points
Card values
- Unter: 2
- Ober: 3
- King: 4
- Ten: 10
- Ace: 11
Phase 2
If the talon is used up, players must follow suit (Farbzwang) and win the trick if possible (Stichzwang) from this point onwards. You must:
- Head the trick with a higher card of the same suit.
- If unable to do so, they must discard a lower card of the same suit.
- If both above are not possible, they must head the trick with a trump.
- Only if they are unable to do the three above, they can discard a card of their choice.
💡 The mod makes this obvious by disabling certain cards in your hand to play
Additional rules
- You can exchange the trump card for a trump Unter in your hand. That way you can get a more valuable card in your hand
💡 Activate the trump card to do so
- If you hold a King and Ober of the same suit, you may call it out: For a trump marriage, 40 points, For a non-trump marriage, 20 points.
💡 The mod displays an additional button in that case to press
Installation
