In the trick-taking game Seas of Strife, originally published as Strife, you want to avoid collecting tricks as skillfully as possible. Before playing, all cards are distributed evenly among the players. Once a player plays a single card for the first trick, all other players must, if possible, play a card of the same suit. If a player cannot play by color, they can play a card of a color of their choice - but then all subsequent players can play a card of one of the matching colors (or possibly a third color if they don't have either of the first two) . When all players have played the trick, check which color has been played most often in the trick. Whoever played the highest card of this suit wins the trick. If two or more suits are the same, the highest card counts as the winner. You play several rounds until someone reaches the target number of strokes made. At that point, whoever has made the fewest tricks wins!
