About the game
In Game of Suspicion, players try to guess the exact number of other players' hands, preventing other players from guessing the exact number of theirs. Once all the players' hands are successfully guessed by other players, that player is eliminated from the game. The player who has guessed right scores points according to the number of the cards. (i.e., if that player has four cards, and you guess them correctly, you get 4 points). The player with 15 or more points wins.
