Durak: Classic & Transferable

High-Quality Implementation of the Most Popular Card Game Durak (Fool)

The card game "Durak" ("Fool," "Dumb") is perhaps one of the most popular and widespread card games in the former Soviet Union. With this high-quality realization, you can enjoy playing "Durak" ("Fool") offline, without an internet connection, using a deck of 24, 36, or 52 cards.

"Durak" ("Fool") comes in two main variants: "Fool Flip" (Durak Podkidnoy) and "Fool Transferable" (Durak Perevodnoy). While the rules share some similarities, each variant has its unique nuances.

The primary goal of the game is to get rid of your cards as quickly as possible. The first player to do so wins, while the last player remaining is dubbed the "fool" (durak).

Fool Flip (Durak Podkidnoy) is the classic version of the game. In this mode, if the attacker cannot throw a card at the defending player, the next player to the defender's left takes over. They can only throw one card at a time. Once it is beaten, the right to throw returns to the initial attacker. If the player to the left of the defender has no cards to throw, the opportunity passes to the next player in a clockwise direction. This allows all players to participate in the attack, but in turn, hence the name "Flip Fool" (Durak Podkidnoy) or "Durak Classic."

The Transferable Fool (Durak Perevodnoy) adds an exciting twist by allowing the defending player to "transfer" a thrown card starting from the second move. By placing a card of the same rank but in a different suit on the table, the defender can pass the attack to the next player in a clockwise direction. This player can also "transfer" the card to the next player, and so on. This is why it's called "Fool Transferable" (Durak Perevodnoy).
