Please tell me what this card game is. It’s driving me crazy!

Ok. It has lots of rounds. A bit like whist but not whist. I vaguely remember it builds up to some sort of peak round then back down again but I may be mistaken. There was about 12 rounds each with a different goal. We played it at university and I cannot got the life of me remember what it was called. Any ideas?

Not bridge?

Could it be Knock-out Whist? Where you reduce each hand by one card each round?

Contract?

Montana Red Dog?

I think contract whist, it starts at 3 cards, goes upto 7 and back down. You have to guess how many hands you will win and get points for them on each round.

Crash?

Is it rummy? As in one round you have 6 cards and you need a run and a block, then you do it with 7 cards etc.

Phase 10? (This doesn't use a standard pack of playing cards though - it has its own set of cards)

Trumps?!

Not contact whist as your not guessing how many you’ll win. It’s more like one hand is diamonds high, one hand like rummy. I don’t know, can’t remember but maybe reducing cards. Aggghhh, I can’t remember!!!

Sorry, meant to say thank you all! Def standard cards!

What is Trumps?

Go Johnny go go go go?

Oh I’m not sure what Montana red dog is. Or crash?

Johnny go go go??? How is that played?

Hotel?

Kaluki? We used to play in big groups. Think the wild card changed every round

What is hotel? There was def different rounds to the same game with a different rule or challenge to each hand.
It’s driving me crazy!

I think I know the game. Different aims for each round? I think it's called Hearts.

Newmarket?

I never could get the hang of it personally!

Forgot photo!

13 card brag?

Oh hell?

We play one called 'Ten Up'. Sounds very similar.
