Trump Card Whales

Imagine whales. Huge, majestic, graceful... and incredibly competitive! These members of the whale family are called "trump card". While ordinary whales spend all their strength singing songs, these narwhals, blue whales, sperm whales, and orcas are looking for a way... to quickly rake in cash from the bottom. Every day they dive into the deepest depths and compete in collecting precious pearls. Are you ready to become a trump card whale and prove to everyone that in the ocean, you are the pearl king?
Pearl Tycoon
"Trump Card Whales" is a classic card tabletop game with a trick-taking mechanic. Participants will collect victory points - pearls, by playing cards featuring amusing whales. To win a trick, you need to play the most suitable card from your hand on your turn. However, "Trump Card Whales" wouldn’t be called trump cards if they didn't have a couple of aces hidden in their fins. Unlike other tabletop games with a trick-taking mechanic, the trump card here becomes a random card drawn from the deck at the beginning of the round. When a player wins a trick, they decide the size of their prize. The winner selects any card played by opponents and collects pearl points from it, while the owner of the chosen card will receive an additional bonus for the future. When all cards from hand are played, the round ends and the scoring begins. The first player to collect 30 pearls wins the game and can sing their victory song to the other whales.
