What is Schadenfreude

Schadenfreude is a trick-taking game for 3-5 players. The game ends when any player has scored more than 40 points, and the winner is the closest to 40 without going over.

The card distribution includes some ranks of negative value, is a "must follow" game, and does not include any trump suits.

The winner of a trick is the person who played the second highest card of the lead suit. That player collects their card and any cards which did not follow suit into a score pile. However, a player can have at most one card of each rank in their score pile. If they would collect a second, both cards are instead discarded. At the end of a hand, a player scores an amount of points equal to the sum of the ranks of the cards they have collected.

Juego de bazas en el que en cada mano, gana el jugador con la segunda mejor carta jugada (obligatorio seguir el palo). Si ganas la baza, te quedas con la carta que has jugado y cualquier otra que no siguiera el palo. Si te quedas con una carta de valor igual a uno que ya tenías, se cancela. Además, también hay cartas con valores negativos. Se juegan manos hasta que un jugador se sale del track de puntuación (máximo 40 puntos). Si esto sucede, el jugador que se salió no puntúa, y gana de los restantes el que más cerca de los 40 puntos se ha quedado. Muy interesante y recomendable.
