+Climbers is a cooperative trick-taking game.
+
+Both decks are shufflet together, then each player is dealt 3 * n cards
+for a game with up to 3 * n players (i.e. 3 cards up to 3 players, 6
+cards up to 6 players, etc.).
+
+The player to the right of the dealer plays one card face up on the
+playing surface, then each player in counterclockwise order tries to
+play a card from the same deck, higher than the ones already in play:
+if they can't the hand is discarded, if all players manage to do so the
+hand is moved to the score pile.
+
+A variant allows intermediate players to play any card, and the hand is
+won if the last player can beat all of the cards on the table, lost
+otherwise.
+
+Starting from the player who played the higher value card and proceeding
+counterclockwise each player who had played a card picks up a new one
+from the deck, and the next hand is started by the same player who
+picked up first.
+
+When there are no more cards in the deck the game continues until nobody
+has any card in their hand.
+
+The game is usually considered won when the score pile has at least
+10362 points (half of the possible total of 20724), but more or less
+skilled players may set different targets for themselves.
