About the game
Inspired by the novel and role-playing game Wastburg, Révolte! is a trick-taking game in which nobles get you points, rascals steal coins, blaggards can be corrupted to become trump, and citizens can revolt and cancel a trick. In more detail, the deck contains forty cards: ten unnumbered citizens and three families of cards (nobles, rascals, and blaggards) numbered 1-10. Each player starts with 1 coin and a hand of cards. The active player leads a card of their choice, then the next player can play a card of the same family, play a citizen (even if they could play a matching family), "cut" (ditto), or (if they can't follow) play off-family; to "cut", pay 1 coin, then play a blaggard as a trump. If a blaggard is played, the highest one wins, and if not, the highest card in the family led wins; additionally, the player of the highest noble receives 1 point, and the player of the lowest rascal receives 1 coin. However, if more citizens are played than the members of any one family, then the citizens revolt! No one wins the trick, and no points or coins are awarded. The lead player of that trick leads the next one. When all tricks have been played, score 1 point for each trick won. After three rounds, whoever has the most coins receives 2 points, then whoever has the most points wins.
