RAFFUS™

RAFFUS™ is a specialized playing card deck and a very compelling, amusing, and entertaining card game. The Aces and Face Cards are fine art in themselves. There is lingo, jargon associated with the play of the game. It is a card game that is fast-moving and enjoyable to play for two, three, or four players. It takes up to 25 minutes to complete a game. During play, players cut for the high card to deal with the cards, win a trick, or control the play. You will find that certain players have higher abilities in cutting for high cards, an intuitive skill.

One goal in developing RAFFUS™ was to design a deck created especially for this game. The other goal was to create a deck of playing cards that would be unique and recognized as a playing card deck created in the United States of America. We changed the French suit signs to a new set of U.S. suit signs. We changed Spades to Swirls, Hearts to Cones, Clubs to Squares, and Diamonds to Stars. We kept the King, Queen, and Jack and replaced the number ten card with an Eloise face card, which we call El. The result of the research, design, and development of RAFFUS™ will be years of pleasure for you and your card-playing friends.
