Winning hands aren’t mentioned in much detail in most of the games, sadly. Note that some card names are repeated, such as there being a Knight of Mercy and a Song of Mercy. Not all cards are mentioned by name, so the cards listed here are only what exist in the game files. In Dragon Age: Inquisition, Cassandra off-handedly mentions there being two additional suits: Drakes and Swords, but it is likely these are just alternate names for the pre-existing Serpents and Knights suits. However, since there are no other mentions of a Daggers suit in any of the games, it is more likely that the Serpent-Entwined Dagger is a part of the Serpents suit. Many fans include a fifth suit, Daggers, likely due to the Serpent-Entwined Dagger card. There are four card suits: Serpents, Songs, Angels, and Knights, with an unknown number of cards in each suit. This is presumably why characters like Cullen and Cassandra, known for being honest rule-followers, are hopeless at Wicked Grace, whereas characters like Isabela and Josephine Montilyet, known for their cunning and sleight of hand, excel at it. So long as you’re not caught cheating, the rules don’t matter. Cheating in Wicked Grace can be done in a number of ways, such as drawing two cards instead of one, drawing from the discard pile, not revealing when the player has drawn the Angel of Death until they like their hand, stacking the deck in their favor, etc.
Half the fun of the game is to cheat without being caught.
That being said: the rules to Wicked Grace are treated more like guidelines. To win the game, you must have the hand of the highest value when the game ends-similar to how you win at poker. All players show their hands, and the one with the best hand wins. When the Angel of Death card is drawn, the card must immediately be revealed and the game ends. Cards are sometimes played upside-down or in reverse.īefore the turns start, there's a round of betting, the same as in poker: players can call, raise, or fold.Įach turn, the player draws one card from the deck, discards and/or plays cards until they have five cards in hand again, then ends their turn.
Played cards do not count against the five in their hand. The exception to this being that a player can “play” cards, placing them on the table in front of them. Each player is dealt five cards, and cannot have more than five cards in hand at a time.
