Accordion (card game)

Source 📝

320:. Played with a single deck, "no skill is required". Two cards of equal rank are placed at the top and bottom of the shuffled pack and the top 4 cards dealt to the table in a row. If the outer cards are of the same rank or suit, the inner cards are discarded, otherwise the next card is added to the row. Every time there is a series of four cards in which the outer ones match in rank and suit, the two cards in between are discarded. If successful, the player's last move will be to discard the two cards between the two originally chosen as the top and bottom of the pack. The game was sometimes called 180: 190: 185: 175: 170: 1333: 264:

in 1883 and by "Tarbart" in 1905. Dick's rules are strict: a packet must be moved if possible and, if there is a choice, it must be moved to its nearest neighbour. Tarbart's rules are lax: a packet that can be moved need not be and judgment should be exercised as to whether to play it or not.

A pile can be moved on top of another pile immediately to its left or moved three piles to its left if the top cards of each pile have the same suit or rank. Gaps left behind are filled by moving piles to the left. The player is not required to make a particular move if they prefer not to.

The game recorded by Wood & Goddard in 1940 as Tower of Babel allows a player the choice of whether to play an available packet to its left-hand neighbour or to the third packet to the left, but does not say if a player can continue dealing without moving.
116:. It is called The Idle Year because "with a well-shuffled pack, it will require about that length of time to accomplish it." Presumably the same logic applies to Methuselah. It may be the same game that the Italians call Qui Sace (Who Knows?). 235:
Originally, cards were laid out one at a time, and it was only allowed to place a new card when no moves were available. As the game is exceedingly difficult to win that way, the rules listed above were adopted.
