A childrens' card game. The object is to be the first to get rid of all your cards. The dealer shuffles the pack and deals the required number of cards to each player. He spreads out the "spare" cards, face up, in the centre of the table. On their turn a player turns up his top card and tries to place it on any of the "spare" cards in ascending or descending order. If he can't follow the sequence they place the card face up next to his own pile. Other players who can't play a card on the "spare" cards can instead play a card in seqence onto any of the other player's face-up cards. If they can't, they put the card in their own face-up pile. If a player places a card incorrectly the other players shout "Folly" and they each give you a card from their face-down piles to add to your pile. When your face-down pile runs out, turn your face-up pile face-down and carry on. The first player to get rid of all his cards wins.
