 Prší (raining/it's raining) is a Czech variant of the card game Mau-Mau((:fn:>Which I learn from the vile Wikipedia. I had never heard of Mau-Mau prior to looking into prší online.)). The rules are quite simple to learn and remember. Consequently, I play this game a lot with family and friends.\\

 ===== Requirements & Card overview =====
 To play, I recommend the use of [[wp>German-suited_playing_cards|german suited cards]], although you can use French-suited cards provided you remove all the numbers lower than 7.\\

 An upper card allows the player to change the suit that is currently being played. So if the current suit is Acorns, a player can place an Upper to change it to Bells. These Uppers can also be placed onto any card, regardless of their own suit.
 === Aces ===
-An Ace freezes the next player's turn. Similar to 7s, they can avoid this if they place an Ace themselves. Yeah, not much else to add.
+An Ace can be used to block the next player's turn. The next player won't be able to place a card or take one from the stack. Similar to the Ⅶ, the next player can avoid this by placing down their own Ace, which then blocks the next player.
 ==== Bonus Rules ====
-The rules given are basically the standard. Wherever you go in Czechia, they will all be familiar with them. These next ones are extras that make the game a bit more interesting. I've picked them up over the years and now I shall share them with you.
+The rules I mentioned previously are basically the standard and apply everywhere in Czechia. However, these next few rules make the game a bit more interesting and are recommended if you've gotten bored of regular gameplay. These are non-standard and I picked them up over the years.\\
+Once you and your friend group become familiar with these rules, it's necessary to double-check what rules the games are being played under - to avoid potential arguments.
 === Green King/King of Leaves ===
-This rule makes the King of Leaves actually useful.\\
+This rule grants additional power to the King of Leaves. When a player places this king down, the next player is forced to take three cards from the stack. There is no way to get out of doing this.\\
-When you place this bad boy down the next player has to take 3 cards from the stack, no exceptions. You can't place another card to prevent it.\\
+However, if, for whatever reason, you're playing with multiple decks of cards, then the Green King //can// stack.
-Combining it with the previous 8 card combo will lead to hilarity or sorrow depending on which side you're on.\\
+=== Red Ⅶ/Ⅶ of Hearts ===
-You can alternatively think of it as the "Tactical Nuke" rule.
+Normally, when a player disposes of all their cards they win. This rule prevents such players from savoring the taste of victory.\\
-=== Red Seven/Seven of Hearts ===
+Once a player finishes their turn, it's possible for the previous player to place down a Red Ⅶ, which forces them back into the game by making them take two cards from the stack. This only applies within one cycle, so if the player survives the first cycle after they win, then they're out of the game completely and can't be brought in again.\\
-When a player finishes their turn they win, they're out of the game... right?\\
+Based on experience, this is the most popular bonus rule.
-Well, with this rule they won't be for a brief moment. If the player that goes before them places a 7 of Hearts they will be forced back in. However, if this last player doesn't have a 7 of Hearts, can't place it or chooses not to then the opportunity is lost.
 === Loser loses 1 card ===
-This rule is fairly simple. When a player loses a game, they have 1 less card the next game. The purpose is to spice the game up a bit... Sometimes playing 20 rounds back-to-back while passing the time gets a little repetitive.\\
+Playing multiple games in a row can quickly get stale and this rule is meant to alleviate that.\\
+When a player loses a game they'll have one less card for the next game. So while everyone else may start with four cards, this player will start with three.
 ===== Trivilinks =====
-  * Despite what this article said before... I decided to check whether it was a czech card game or not. As it turns out... it's a variant of a card game called "Mau-Mau" (at least that's what our friend Wikipedia says).
+  * When I first heard of Uno, I thought there were a suspicious number of similarities to Prší. Turns out, Uno is also a variant of Mau-Mau.
-  * In the past, I had noticed the game Uno had a lot of similarities to Prší... yeah Uno's also a variant of Mau-Mau.
-  * The Wikipedia page includes a few extra rules... so I'll just uh... inspire myself with them.
-  * Games I've played in the past occasionally lead to some interesting moments that have led to weird tips and tricks.
-    * For example, instead of placing an Upper to change the colour to one you want, you should instead pick a colour that you don't have at all. By the time it's your turn again, the colour will be the one you wanted all along.
