Hit or Miss (card game)

The game is significantly based on luck-of-the-draw, but the process of elimination gives it appeal nonetheless.

[4] American editor, Harris B. Dick, renames it "Hit and Miss" in his 1898 publication and the game has been variously called Roll Call or Hit or Miss since.

[1] Several editors include the alternative names, failing to mention that Harvest is played with a 32-card pack.

When all the remaining cards are dealt twice in succession without a "hit", the game is lost.

A closely related solitaire game that operates on a similar mechanic is Frustration.
