Description

A card game with the players trying to collect additional cards to create sets/tricks. First published in around 1865, when history meant learning the kings and queens, Jaques titled the 3 different games as Hide & Seek series 1 (William I - Richard II), Hide & Seek series 2 (Henry IV - Charles I) and Hide & Seek series 3 (Charles II - Victoria in the 1st edition or Edward VII in the 2nd edition). The first editions all had small pictures of the monarchs but the second editions had larger pictures in a more modern style looking like paintings. The game is played by players asking each other for the Event cards matching the King cards, completing sets, and so on. - description taken from the World of Playing Cards website
