King (or Barbu) – The Classic Card Game of Portugal and Brazil

Step into the elegant world of King (known as Barbu in some regions), a cherished trick-taking card game deeply rooted in Portuguese and Brazilian culture. With its rich history, strategic depth, and social charm, King has long been a favorite among friends and family — now available online for players around the world.

🃏 Game Overview

• Type: Contract-based trick-taking card game
• Players: 2 to 4 (ideal for 4 players)
• Deck: 32-card French deck (7s through Ace in each suit)
• Objective: Win tricks and fulfill your contract (bid) to score points; avoid penalties for underperforming.

Each player bids (or "contracts") on how many tricks they believe they can win. The challenge lies in balancing ambition with skill — too high a bid and you risk going "under," too low and you might miss an opportunity to score big.
