Palandiell Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 hey, I am trying to play the card game caravan, but I seem to completly misunderstand the rules. You have 3 caravans, where you lay out 3 cards. then I thought you have to put the same color on that card either inwith continous rising numbers or falling numbers right? and high cards have a special effect. but some how I cant do anything! I have as my first card a cross 3. I cant put a pic 5 or 6 or heat 4 or anyother card on it! while my opponent just seems to randomly put cards where he wants. what am i doing wrong?

Palandiell Posted November 13, 2010 Author Share Posted November 13, 2010 card game seems bugged with me. I cant do the EXACT same thing my opponent does he plays a spade 9 I do too, he plays a 8 hearts, I cant, then he plays a 10 hearts, I cant do that. WTF, he changed directions and he didnt care about the suit either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WuphonsReach Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 There are two ways to change directionality, the first is by playing a Queen, the second is by matching the suit on the previous card with a different value numbered card. 7 heart8 diamond6 diamond + queen7 heart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BooneoftheWasteland Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Palandiell I think I had the same problem as you. Once you have your 3 caravans (top 3 cards) your next set of cards, following the rules, you have to place underneath them by use of the directional keypad/button. So by default it does not lay underneath the top card but sits on the same level of the top card and you have to select it to sit underneath. Does that make sense to you? It baffled me as well until that was clarified to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dthumb Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 The game controls and rules baffled me for a while. Eventually I figured it out, then learned the trick to win 100%. You just need a set of 10s, 9s, and 7s... instant money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WuphonsReach Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 At least until they finally fix the AI so that it plays face cards on your side of the table. Then you'll find you need a more complete deck, I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
