Hearts is a great trick-taking card game where you don't want to win rounds where hearts are played, but you often do want to take tricks to control the flow of the game. But if you're real sneaky or have a good hand, you can take all the hearts and the queen of spades and screw everyone else. Wonderful game, little bit hard to pick up because there are 13 cards in a hand and the strategy has some depth, but it's so good.

Euchre is a more straight forward trick-taking game played in two teams of two partners who can't tell each other what to do or what they have. Its slim deck and hands make for a fast-paced game with some fun probability and strategic choices, never quite sure of what your partner has or what cards are out of the hand.

Cribbage is a classic game of building hands and scoring along a track. There's plenty of game in gambling on what hand you'll be able to build with what you decide to keep, but the real magic is in its idiosyncratic scoring and all the accompanying phrases and ceremony. A great game to chat over and pass the time, which has made it a staple of hunting camps.

You guys, I really miss playing cards.

Edit: wow, a lot of people like Hearts. Rad.

Hearts is the most fun for me but the people I play cards with always default to poker

Love dirty clubs and euchre but hearts has always been my favorite.

i got into MTG right as everyone was saying that WotC was killing it and now i'm an Arena paypig

easy to learn but with quite a bit of strategy. One thing this guide leaves out is that you can pass your turn any time, even if you're able to beat the previous players card in order to keep pairs, triples, or sequences for use later.

Hearts, spades, gin rummy, and bridge (especially if other people are doing the score keeping on the mathy ones)

Texas hold em is a great group game, especially with proper chips. I used to play it on scout camps with about 7 other people, it was a lot of fun. Would love to do it at the pub someday, but covid exists.

Yu-Gi-Oh gave me brainworms and is infuriating to play, especially when you have friends who have thousands of cards and always know how to beat you. But I still love it, I've played loads of it online recently

Mao, a game that you cannot explain the rules to except to say that it's sort of like Uno, and there are penalties every time you fuck up a rule. There are a lot of rules
