Gameplay
Play cards to follow a question thread (Suit)trying to top your fellows with better questions (higher Ranks) to score Mystic points. But beware, sometimes the spirits get annoyed and you will suffer psychic backlash.

The game uses octagonal ring (octoring), that will have put cards around so each suit is represented at the start of the game. Players get cards (the amount is based on the player count). Then they start playing the tricks.

The dealer plays a card and the other players follow in clockwise order. They can not skip, but they can choose:

Play a face up card of rank 1-9 to empty place in octoring or beat a matching suit in octoring. The replaced card will score 2 mystery points to you.
Play a face up 'change the subject' card to vacant a slot in the octoring. No points are gained or lost.
Play a card face down to replace any card in the octoring. The card you replaced will decrease your mystic points by its value.

Players play until the players are out of cards. You calculate the points for the round and start a new round. Typically you play as many rounds as there are players, but you can choose other number.

Scoring:

Each player totals up the Mystic Points for the cards in their pile.
Each face down card scores+2.

Each face up card scores the Rank value in negative.
