Goita is a highly addictive partnership card game that blends skill and chance. Originally, Goita is played by four players who form two pairs. Aim of the game is collecting more Victory Points (VP) quickly than opponent pair. Partners sit opposite each other at same game table. Each player receives 8 cards (as hand) which have images of Japanese Chessmen on it. In this version, we also provide 3 players battle royal variant.
Start player plays first card face-down and second card face-up. The next player may pass or play a card face-up if it is a same card as last player's second card. After first card played, this player plays any second card. Continue this until someone plays all hand and the pair wins the deal. VP is determined by the last played card. The pair who collects 150 VP wins the game.
