Product Description Skat seniors – German picture playing cards for seniors are very special products: the cards are particularly easy to read thanks to larger card formats and extra large corner characters. The card image with cornflower back – particularly common in Central Germany. Skat is the most popular card game of the Germans for three or four players. The birth hour struck over 200 years ago (1813) in Altenburg, Thuringia. Where playing cards have been produced today for over 500 years, a new game was created at the evening meetings of well-known Altenburg honoratiors. For the game "Scat", first mentioned on September 4, 1813, the rules were borrowed from various old games. Here the boys are trumps and worth more than the kings. Against the background of the political conditions of the early 19th century - Napoleon ruled almost all of Europe at that time - it is no wonder that the idea of skat game spread quickly. With the new game for three players, the Germans overcame French oppression, found unity and even survived dictatorships and world wars. Today, there are around 20 million skat players in the country, or better: 19 million players and one million players. The German leaf played especially in Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia with the traditional cornflower back was also developed in Altenburg and enjoys great popularity.
