Quickfire Rules:

Oh Hell! adheres to the standard rules of trick-taking card games. A card can be beaten by a higher card of the same suit or any trump card. Once a card is played, other players must follow suit. If they can't, they have the option to Trump, playing any trump card to win the trick, or Throw Away, playing any non-trump card to lose it.

Each trick scores one point, and correctly predicting the number of tricks you'll win during the bidding stage earns you 10 points per round. If you bid 0 and the ‘Nil Bid Worth 5’ setting is active, you'll score 5 points instead.
