Tossní (pronounced /ˈtɔʃ.niː/) is a Walnerian trick-taking card game, that is one of the more casually played games in the country.
Cards
The game is played using 2 Standard 52-card deck with 4 jokers added (making it a total of 108 cards), which consists of 4 patterns ( Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs & Spades), each having 13 values (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K & A), and 2 jokers (marked with letter "Z") of colors red ( + ) and black ( + )

Type of the card | „Regular“ cards No action after the round is undertaken |
„Action“ cards Special action after the round happens |
Rules
The objective of the game is to get rid of the cards that are dealt to your hand, either by placing them to the swap deck or by forming another decks using 3-card long straight flush to form another swap deck. If a legal move can not be done by a player, they deal a card from a shuffle deck (which is laid back-up on the table).
One move
A player plays a card from their hand on one of the swap decks on the table (only one card per round). A card on top of the swap deck must match either by pattern (♥,♦,♣,♠) or by value (2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,J,Q,K,A,Z). This means, that on 8♥, for example 9♥, 4♥ or Q♥ can be placed because of the same pattern, 8♦,8♣,8♠ can be placed because of the same value, but for example 2♦ or K♠ can not be placed, as neither the pattern or value matches.
If the card is of the „Action“ kind, a special action happens before the next player gets the turn.
Value | Cards | Special action |
---|---|---|
Jack | The player who dealt this card decides what the pattern for the next round is. Next player has to play a card of that pattern or another jack. | |
Queen | The player after the player who deal this card has to draw 2 cards from the shuffle deck, unless they can play another queen. Then this skip applies to the next player down the stream of the game, and the value of cards to be drown is added up, meaning that if three players play a queen in a row, the next player has to draw 6 cards unless they can play yet another queen. | |
King | The player who dealt this card draws a card from one of the opponents of their own choosing (seeing only the back sides), mixes it with their own cards in hand and lets the person draw one card back (seeing only the back sides). This card can be the same card as the one that was drawn from the opponent in the first place (returning of the card can happen). | |
Ace | The player after the player who dealt this card has to skip their round unless they can play another ace. Then this skip applies to the next player down the stream of the game. | |
Joker | This card can be placed on the two patterns of corresponding color (Red Joker corresponds to Hearts (♥) & Diamonds (♦), Black Joker corresponds to Spades (♠) and Clubs (♣)). If played, the next player has to draw a card if they can not play two cards of the same pattern and rising value (for example 8♣-9♣, A♥-2♥, K♦-A♦, but not 2♦-4♦). |
Playing the game
The game begins with the cards being shuffled (note: some people do not shuffle after the first round to rewards people with a good memory) and placed back-up on the table, each player is dealt 8 cards.
After the cards are dealt, the top card of the pack is placed face-up on the table. If it is
Examples
Here are examples of simple cases between two players, that include all the special rules to the game of Tossní.
Setting up the cards
The game begins and both players are dealt 8 cards. The card on the top of the shuffle deck (displayed to the centre right) is turned upside down and placed on the table as a swap deck. As it is the Jack (in this case, a Jack of Diamonds (J♦)), the deck is turned upside down and the card on the bottom's pattern is taken (in this case, it is the Four of Spades (4♠)). Therefore, in this specific case, it is assumed, that the abstract player has chosen the beginning pattern to be the one of spades. The bottom card (Four of Spades) is then randomly mixed into the deck without shuffling the deck.

Using the Jack
The opponent (on the top) played the Three of Diamonds (3♦). The player can not play any valid move using regular cards, so they decide to play a jack (J♦) and choose for the pattern to be clubs, as they have multiple cards of that pattern that could be gotten rid of. The opponent then plays the Ten of Clubs (10♣).

Using the Queen
The player has dealed a card of 9 of Clubs (9♣). The opponent used the opportunity and played a card of Queen of Clubs (Q♣), putting you in the situation, where you have to draw 2 cards from the shuffle deck (in this case Three of Hearts (3♥) and Eight of Spades (8♠)).
