A game of matching and capturing; a Bezique-based game - with original elements and developments. HERALDIC is uniquely designed to create all the problems of Bezique with a pack of only 48 cards. The card designs are based on traditional animals of the hunt and mythical creatures. Players capture the high-scoring cards in whist-style tricks, then score various combinations of cards on the table and across the table. First player to 1000 points is the winner. Unlike bezique it works well with 2, 3 or 4 players.
