TongitsXtreme, an exhilarating card game originating from the Philippines, has captivated players worldwide with its strategic gameplay and intense competition. The objective of TongitsXtreme is to meld all cards in your hand into valid combinations and be the first player to "knock" or get rid of all their cards.

Gameplay:

The game is played with a standard 52-card deck, with 3 to 4 players participating. Each player is dealt 12 cards initially. The remaining cards form the draw pile, while the top card is placed face up to start the discard pile.

Players take turns drawing cards from either the draw pile or the discard pile. They can then meld cards into valid combinations, which include:

* Single: A card with no combination.

* Pair: Two cards of the same rank.

* Three of a Kind: Three cards of the same rank.

* Straight: Three or more cards in sequence.

* Flush: Three or more cards of the same suit.

* Full House: Three of a kind and a pair.

* Four of a Kind: Four cards of the same rank.

* Straight Flush: Three or more cards in sequence and of the same suit.

Melding:

Melds can be made by placing them face up on the table. Players can add cards to existing melds if they match the rank or suit. However, players cannot break up melds once they have been placed.

Knocking:

A player can knock if they have melded all their cards and have no remaining cards in their hand. To knock, a player places all their melded cards face up on the table and declares "Tongits!"

Scoring:

The player who knocks first wins the round and scores points based on the remaining cards in other players' hands. Points are calculated as follows:

* Regular cards: 1 point

* Wild cards: 2 points

* Special cards: 3 points

Wild Cards:

There are two types of wild cards in TongitsXtreme:

* Black Joker: Can be used to represent any card in a meld.

* Red Joker: Can be used to replace any card in a meld, except for Aces.

Special Cards:

Special cards in TongitsXtreme include:

* Ace of Spades: Can be used to form a Straight Flush with any combination of cards.

* 2 of Clubs: Can be used to form a Straight Flush with any combination of clubs.

Strategy:

TongitsXtreme requires a combination of strategy and luck. Here are some tips to enhance your gameplay:

* Draw Strategically: Consider the cards you have and the potential melds you can make when drawing.

* Meld Wisely: Meld cards in a way that minimizes the risk of other players adding to them.

* Block Opponents: Try to meld cards that prevent your opponents from forming their own melds.
