Quickfire Rules Overview

Oh Hell! adheres to standard trick-taking rules. A higher card of the same suit, or any trump card, beats a played card. Players must follow suit; if unable, they can trump with a trump card to win the trick or discard a non-trump card to lose.

Each trick is worth one point; successful bid predictions earn 10 points per round (or 5 points for a successful nil bid if the "Nil Bid Worth 5" option is enabled).
