Shichinarabe is a Flash implementation of the card game known as Sevens or Parliament, where a player wins by emptying all of the cards from their hands before the other players do. All sevens must first be placed on the table before the first round begins, then players take turn to put down a card that follows a certain ascending or descending sequence. Aces come after Kings, and you can also place a King on the other side of the table if an ace with the same suit had already been played.

I love this game, although it is 95% luck if youre not an idiot.

Got a score of 260. Pretty good game.

649 points and I quit on day 19 because it was too easy.

There is no luck in this game. I win every time. Maybe I don't come in first, but I can keep plaing.

Your opponents always play if they can. You have to pass aggressively. Use it to force your opponents to play cards you need, even if you can play, because you have to deny them paths. Even if it means passing 3 times in a row, do it. In the end you will control the game.
