Soker — Football Card Game

1

Read a player card

The background shows the country. The word in the top-left corner shows the position, the crest in the bottom-right shows the club, and the face is that club's legend in that position. Hover a card to see who it is.

Country colours: Italy is green, Germany yellow, Spain red and England white.

GKP — Goalkeeper
DEF — Defender
MID — Midfielder
FRW — Forward

Make a legal move

Play a card matching the top discard by country or position. Here, an Italian card or any forward is legal. A special card is always legal.

Click once to select. Double-click a legal card to play it immediately.

Play a same-club package

You may play several player cards from the same club in one turn if at least one card in the package is legal. A joker may join as that club’s card.

Select cards in order: the last selected card becomes the new top discard. Yellow and red cards cannot join a package.

Create a Link

Two or more consecutive cards from the same club create a Link, and the next player skips a turn. The previous top discard counts, so one matching club card played onto it is already a Link.

You may also add two or more matching club cards at once. A joker may represent that club and counts as one of the cards.

Cards from the same club share the same coloured outer ring. Different clubs use different ring colours.

Pass and draw

Click the deck to pass and draw, even when you have a legal move. Draw exactly one card, then either play any legal card in your hand or keep the card and end your turn with the End turn button.

If the deck is empty, the discard pile is shuffled into a new deck while its top card stays on the table.

Click the deck → Take 1 card → Play any legal card
or end turn

The clock — online games only

In an online room every turn has 30 seconds. A ring runs around the deck on your turn, and around the panel of whoever is playing otherwise: it starts green, turns amber, then red.

Drawing a card does not restart the clock — the 30 seconds cover the whole turn. The last five tick out loud, so you do not have to watch the ring.

Run out of time and the table plays for you — it draws one card and ends your turn, exactly what you would do with nothing to play. Nobody is ever removed for being slow.

Games against the system have no clock: think as long as you like.

An online room can seat system players too — pick how many when you create it. They take a moment to think, then move; at least one seat always belongs to a person.

30 s per turn → green · amber · red → the table draws

Use special cards

Yellow: all opponents skip; you play again with any card.
Red: the same effect, plus every opponent draws one card.
Joker: always legal; the next player may play anything. It also joins a club package and completes a winning set.

Tournament

Eight games with the same four players. The right to move first rotates, so everyone starts exactly twice.

The tournament is won on points, not on games won — you can lose the last game and still finish first.

1	every card you discard, special cards included
3	winning a game by discarding your whole hand
7	winning a game with four cards from one country

A country win keeps 4 cards in hand — that is 4 points you give up, so it pays 7 to stay worth choosing. Equal points are separated by games won, then country wins.
