About

About Truco Mineiro

Truco Mineiro is a card game made with care for anyone who enjoys a good get-together around the table. Tradition in every play: the truco of Minas Gerais card tables, with the fixed manilhas (top trump cards) Zap, Sete de Copas, Espadilha, and Sete de Ouros.

Play in teams of two or head-to-head, against artificial intelligence at three difficulty levels or against real people in online matches, private rooms with friends, ranked matches, and tournaments.

Sign in with just your phone number, no password. The game is free and ad-supported, with no betting, no coins, and no purchases: nothing that gives you an advantage in exchange for money.

Basic rules

How to play

  1. Four players form two teams (or two players go 1v1). Each player gets three cards, and the hand is played over up to three rounds.

  2. The strongest card wins the round. The manilhas (top trump cards) beat everything else: Zap, Sete de Copas, Espadilha, and Sete de Ouros.

  3. On your turn, call truco to raise the hand to 3. Your opponent accepts, folds, or raises to seis, nove, and doze (6, 9, and 12).

  4. Whoever wins two rounds takes the hand. The first team to reach 12 tentos (points) wins the match.

Card ranking
Manilhas (top trump cards): Zap (4 of clubs), Sete de Copas (7 of hearts), Espadilha (Ace of spades), and Sete de Ouros (7 of diamonds). Then: 3, 2, Ace, King, Jack, Queen, 7, 6, 5, and 4.

Mão de onze
The team with 11 tentos (points) decides whether to play the hand for 3 or concede 1 tento. If both teams have 11, the hand is played normally, with no truco.
Cangou (tie)
If the first round ties, everyone plays their highest card to break the tie. If another round ties, whoever won the first round wins. If all three tie, nobody scores.
