Born Loser

This is a trick taking game, with cards depicting Charles M. Schulz's beloved Peanuts characters. There are six (Lucy, Pigpen, Woodstock, Franklin, Snoopy, and Charlie Brown) sets of cards, each set having the values 1 through 9. The object of the game is to get rid of all the Charlie Brown cards in your hand.

All the cards are dealt to the players. Each player selects and passes two cards unseen to the player on their left.

Dealer then leads with any card from his hand. Other players must play the same character from their hand if they can, else any other. The player who played the lead character with the highest value wins the trick.

Once all the tricks have been won, players total up the values of all Charlie Brown cards in their tricks - lowest score wins.
