Bharg is a Decktet set-making game for 2 players. Object of the game: To bind all the cards in your hand. Setup: Each player is dealt a hand of seven cards. The dealer then deals one card face up to start a discard pile. As the game progresses, there will be two discard piles: one for aces, the other for number cards and crowns. The discard pile for aces is called the Ace Pile. Game play: On your turn, you may take the top card of the numbers-and-crowns discard pile or the top card of the deck. Then you discard a card.
