About the game

In Gadget Trick, the players are ghost thieves trying to steal a treasure from deep in a mansion. Each trick represents an obstacle to be overcome. It is a must-follow trick-taking game. The winner of the game will be the player who wins the last trick of the hand. However, each player has special gadgets to assist them (such as, if you play off suit, your card is treated as being a trump card) and the house has set traps (such as, if you ever collect 6 or more cards which form a run, you are eliminated). As an alternate victory condition, if all but one player is eliminated by traps, the remaining player wins.
