Scarto is a three player trick-taking tarot card game from Piedmont, Italy.
The order of the long (swords and batons) or black (spades and clubs) suits goes from King, Queen, Cavalier, Jack, 10 ... 1 while the round (cups and coins) or red suits (hearts and diamonds) goes from King, Queen, Cavalier, Jack, 1 ... 10.
When using the Fool, the player simply shows the card and puts it in his own trick pile.
Unlike in more advanced tarot games, the player does not need to exchange the Fool with a worthless card.
After the hand has been played, the player's trick pile cards are counted in threes.
