lunar
Lunar is a quick-playing, trick-taking game for two or four players in which players combine the phases of the moon and nocturnal animals to form cards played into tricks, which are combined to determine their value within each trick.
Each round consists of twelve tricks played, and at the end of each round, a score is awarded based on the number of tricks and cards acquired. Once one player (or team) reaches 30 points, the game ends, and the side with the most points wins!

Overview
A twist on the traditional Trick Taking game, where one partner plays the Suit and the other plays the Rank, attempting to combine their cards into winning combinations
Deck Composition
The deck is composed of 48 cards:
3 of each rank card (without suits) in ranks 1-8
6 of each suit card (without ranks) in 4 suits (wolf, owl, lynx & bat)
Turn
To start off, each player picks 2 Rank cards and 2 Suit cards from their starting hand to exchange with their partner
Secondly, beginning with the start player, players flip one trump card facedown until only one remains faceup and this becomes the Trump suit
Then Tricks commence
The starting player can play any card they desire
The first player of a team can also play either a Suit card or Rank card, whilst the second player on the same team has to play the other i.e. if teammate 1 plays a Suit then teammate 2 must play a Rank
The first player to play a Suit determines the lead Suit of the trick, note that this does NOT have to be the start player nor the start team e.g. team A Player 1 plays Rank, team B Player 1 plays Suit, team B has determined Suit
Once Lead Suit is determined, the next player to play Suit must play the same Suit if they have it, or any if they do not hold a copy of Lead Suit
After a Trick is completed, determine the winner of the trick as follows:
If the teams played the same suit, the highest rank wins, if tied the team who played last wins
If the teams played different suits, and one was the trump suit, the team with the trump suit wins
If the team played different suits, with no trump played, the team who determined the Lead Suit (i.e. played Suit earliest) wins
The team who wins advances their team marker one space and retains any cards played by any team which contain the star icon
The leader of the winning team starts the next trick
Round End
The round ends when players run out of hand cards
Each team scores points based on the stars next to their position on the team track
In addition, each team scores a point for each retained star card
A new round begins
Game End
The game ends if, at round end, at least one team has scored at least 30 points
The team with the most points, wins!
If tied, continue playing rounds until there is a clear winner
2 Player Variant
There is a neutral Sky area with its own 'hand' of cards
In each round, each player has two turns, one where they must play Suit or Rank, and the other where they play what they did not play before
In addition, one card must come from their hidden hand and the other must come from the shared Sky 'hand', again the order is player choice but the second turn must be played from where they did not play before
In regards to following Suit, ONLY consider the cards in the area you plan to (or must) play from e.g. if there is a lead suit card in the Sky but none in your hand, you can choose to play a non-lead Suit from your hand.
