Any modern card games that can be played with five suits?

crux• 2 years ago

Tarot (tarock, tarok, tarokk, tarocchi) games are all played with five suits.

I've read on it, and it's basically a game of Hearts (from Windows XP) with more ornate rules. Should be fun.

Games played with French Suited Tarot Cards has a few - https://www.pagat.com/class/ftarot.html

And there is a slightly different list with https://www.pagat.com/class/itarot.html

Italian suited cards have swords, batons, cups and coins while French suited uses hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades.

There's also https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/23567/cripple-mr-onion which uses a double deck that has all of hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades, swords, batons, cups and coins.

For a more recent game, https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/152/mu-more

The Mu deck has 60 cards (evenly divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 - allowing for more combinations of players than 52 cards). It has 5 suits of 12 cards numbered 0 through 9 with two 1s and two 7s. Each card has 0, 1, or 2 pips on it which are used for points. The 1 and 9 have no pips. The 6 and 7 have two pips. All other cards have one pip.

One more late edit - Five Crowns https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/1472/five-crowns which is a 5 suited progressive rummy.

This reminds me of the study of ancient greek vase painters, who are usually known only by a place name or subject, even when we have hundreds of examples of their work and tracts have been written on their style and influence.

I'm really confused about what the entire article is about, maybe "major master" is missing a link to something?
