Hearts Rules

Object

Finish with the lowest score when any player reaches the target score.

Scoring

• Each heart is 1 point.
• The queen of spades is 13 points.
• Shooting the moon gives the shooter 0 and each opponent 26.

Play

Follow suit when possible. There is no trump. Hearts cannot be led until hearts are broken, unless a player has only hearts. The queen of spades may be led at any time.
