these are my favorites! up and down the river (also called “oh heck” or “f*ck the dealer”) is a 3+ game (played w up to 5 people before) that’s really fun. involves bidding and the trump suit changes every round.
spades is a 4+ person game that i love dearly!
cambio is a 2+ person game thats really fun to learn w 2 and then expand. lots of rules, but worth it in the end.
swoosh is very simple, fewer rules, 2+ people, one of my reigning favorites.
