Konkan app
A few resources to get you started if this is your first Flutter project:
For help getting started with Flutter, view flutter documentation, which offers tutorials, samples, guidance on mobile development, and a full API reference.
This app implements "Regular" (عادي) Konkan, so if the rules don't seem familiar or different let us know. Also, these rules are subjectively based on how we know them, so let us know if there are rules that we got wrong/missed.
- Two decks of cards and two jokers
Totalling 106 cards
- 2 - 4 players
- 1 player is chosen to be the first one to start
That players gets 15 cards
- The remaining 1-3 players get 14 cards
- The game goes either clockwise or anti-clockwise after the player chosen in (1.) plays his turn.
- After giving all the players their cards:
you will have:
players cards = 14 * num_players + 1Cards left.Bank cards = 106 - 14 * num_players + 1 - The player whose turn is before the player from (1.) cuts the deck and if the first card he cut is a joker, he gets that joker.
This means he recieves 13 cards from the bank, which plus the joker will total to 14.
- The remaining
Bank Cardsare kept on the field for the players to draw one card when its their turn.Except the player in (1.) in his first turn since he starts with 15 cards. After his first turn, he draws one card from the deck on his turn too.
- The bottom 1 - 3 cards from the
Bank Cardsare BURNT cards and they are shown to all players.
Main objective is to SET or COMBINE 14 of your cards and discarding one card on your turn.
- First you need to know how to count the score of the cards you want to set
- Your cards must have a score higher or equal to 52, if no other player has set their cards, or the maximum score that other players set their cards at. Also, you must satisfy some conditions to be eligible to set your cards.
Example: Let's say player one was able to collect a score of 60 and satisfied all the conditions to set their cards and no other player has set their cards. Since player one had a score > 52, he's able to set his cards. Now, let's say player two wants to set their cards. His cards must score at least 60. - The cards you set must be correctly grouped
Here are the scores of each card:
| Card | Value |
|---|---|
| A | 11 |
| 2 | 2 |
| 3 | 3 |
| 4 | 4 |
| 5 | 5 |
| 6 | 6 |
| 7 | 7 |
| 8 | 8 |
| 9 | 9 |
| 10 | 10 |
| J | 10 |
| Q | 10 |
| K | 10 |
| Joker | Score of card that the Joker is replacing |
Your score when you set your cards is simply the sum of your cards' values.
-
It must be your turn
-
You must take the card that the player right before you discarded and use it in the cards you're setting.
In other words, you must utilize the card that was most recently discarded by your opponent towards the cards you're setting.
If you instead drew a card from the
Bank cardsand that card happened to be the one that was missing in your cards (the card that would make you win), you are allowed to set your cards (without having to draw from the discarded cards).
If you aren't able to SET or COMBINE 14 cards and discard one card (which would make you win the game), you are penalized 50 on your total game score. -
If you have set your cards for the first time, during your turn, you are allowed to set any group you have collected since setting your cards for the first time.
Here's a list of all possible groups:
The prefix of each card means a suit.
D → Diamond
C → clubs
H → hearts
S → Spades
| Group | Note |
|---|---|
| HA → H2 → H3 → H4 → H5 → H6 → H7 → H8 → H9 → H10 → HJ → HQ → HK → HA | You can't have a HK → HA → H2 group |
| DA → D2 → D3 → D4 → D5 → D6 → D7 → D8 → D9 → D10 → DJ → DQ → DK → DA | You can't have a DK → DA → D2 group |
| SA → S2 → S3 → S4 → S5 → S6 → S7 → S8 → S9 → S10 → SJ → SQ → SK → SA | You can't have a SK → SA → S2 group |
| CA → C2 → C3 → C4 → C5 → C6 → C7 → C8 → C9 → C10 → CJ → CQ → CK → CA | You can't have a CK → CA → C2 group |
| 3-4 of the same card (e.g. A, 3, Q...etc) but different suit (e.g. C,D,H,S) |
The Joker can replace any card
Each of your groups must consist of at least 3 cards.
Example:
This is a perfectly valid grouping:
1 2 3
DA SA CA HA H2 H3 H9 Joker HJ
1. 11 + 11 + 11 = 33
2. 11 + 2 + 3 = 16
3. 9 + 10 + 10 = 29
This grouping will total a score of 33 + 16 + 29 = 78.
If a player had a score of 79 when they set their cards, this grouping won't be enough to set your cards.
- It must be your turn
- You must have your cards set or you're in your winning turn that was mentioned in 2.
- The Card/s that you are combining must complete one of your opponents groups
Example:
Let's say one of your oppenents has:
1 2 3
DA SA CA HA H2 H3 H8 H9 Joker HJ
and you have these cards in your hand:
HA, H4, H7, HQ, HK...etc
Then if you satisfy conditions 1. and 2. and you wanted to combine all your available cards,
here's how your opponent's groups will look like in the game:
1 2 3
DA SA CA HA HA H2 H3 H4 H7 H8 H9 Joker HJ HQ HK
combining only benefits you because you lose some cards that could penalize you after
the game is done if you didn't win the game, and it removes the opportunity for other
players to combine their cards.
combining does not increase the score for setting cards.
In the case where you had a H10, you can replace the Joker, and obtain the Joker to use it
for other purposes.
After you've SET or COMBINED 14 of your cards and discarded one card on your turn (You won), here's what happens:
If the discarded card is a Joker, all your opponents recieve 200 penalty on their overall score.- If not:
- players that have not set their cards recieve 100 penalty on their overall score.
- players that have set their cards are penalized over the remaining cards in their hand
- If a player has a penalty of over 301 across games, that player is disqualified to play again.
| Card | Penalty |
|---|---|
| A | 11 |
| 2 | 2 |
| 3 | 3 |
| 4 | 4 |
| 5 | 5 |
| 6 | 6 |
| 7 | 7 |
| 8 | 8 |
| 9 | 9 |
| 10 | 10 |
| J | 10 |
| Q | 10 |
| K | 10 |
| Joker | 50 |
