Sueca is an entertaining trick-taking card game beloved by Portuguese communities worldwide.
This strategic point-based game thrives in Portugal, Brazil, Angola, Macau, Mozambique, and historical Portuguese colonies like Goa and Nagasaki. Designed for four players forming two partnerships, Sueca offers exciting team gameplay.
The goal is to capture the most tricks using a 40-card deck (removing 8s, 9s, and 10s from a standard set). Card hierarchy follows Ace (highest), 7, King, Jack, Queen, then 6 through 2. Scoring values: Ace (11 pts), 7 (10 pts - called "manilha"), King (4), Jack (3), Queen (2), with remaining cards worth zero.
Winning tricks grants their cumulative point value, with the leading trump card always securing the trick.
For two players, try Bisca - Sueca's close relative also featured in this app.
