Rook Card Game

Rook is a trick-taking card game that uses a special deck of cards. The deck has four suits or colors, numbered from one to fourteen, and a Rook Bird card or a castle chess piece that acts like a joker. The game was introduced by Parker Brothers in 1906 for those who did not want to use standard playing cards with face cards. The game is usually played by four players in teams of two, and there are many variants of the game.
