Play Svara Online: A Comprehensive Guide to the Card Game

Svara (also known as Svarka) is a captivating card game played with a standard 32-card deck (7 to Ace). A minimum of two players are required. The game boasts a total of 4960 possible card combinations, ensuring diverse gameplay.

Gameplay Rules:

Each player receives three cards dealt clockwise. The hand's value determines the winner, with the highest point total securing victory. Points are calculated as follows:

1. Number cards (7-9): Value equals the face value (7-9 points respectively).
2. Face cards (10, J, Q, K): Each card is worth 10 points.
3. Aces: Each Ace is worth 11 points.
4. Same Suit Combination: Cards of the same suit are summed for their total value. For example: Q♦, K♦, 10♠ = 20 points; 10♠, 8♠, K♥ = 18 points.
5. Ace Combinations: Aces can be combined regardless of suit. Two Aces equal 22 points, three Aces equal 33 points.
6. The 7♣ ("Ceco Jonchev," "Chechak," "Chotora," "Shpoka," or "Yoncho"): This card combines with any other card for a total of 11 points.
7. Three Sevens: Three 7s form the strongest combination, worth 34 points.
8. Three of a Kind: Three cards of the same rank are worth three times the rank's value. For example, three 8s are worth 24 points (3 x 8 = 24), and three Queens are worth 30 points (3 x 10 = 30).

• 7♥, 9♦, 9♣ = 9 points (lowest possible hand)
