The description of playing cards and game boards.

The basic version of this card game consists of two playing card decks and one game board. The full version contains of two additional game boards and the third deck and the set of jokers.
The third deck's playing cards differ from the first and the second deck's playing cards due to dark circle on the face and due to dark double circles on the back. But all other features of the first, second and the third deck's playing cards are the same.
Suits are marked with colors in the contour of traditional playing card suits. Values are marked with the numbers from 1 to 8. And two zeros are added to the third deck's values. These playing cards have also orienting arrows that point to the opponent when they are on the game board. In addition playing cards have/do not have crosses which mark proportional groups.
In contrary of two proportional groups, the third deck playing cards are distributed into three proportional groups, which can be used when three players are playing.
Determined order of playing card distribution into proportional groups is realized in each playing card deck. It allows using different playing card ratio during game process. It also can be of importance on game boards with different suit or value order.
The basic game board (presented in the basic version) is marked by letter «A». Additional game boards (presented in the full version) are marked by letters «B» and «C».
The suit order, which is assigned to squares, is different for each game board. Consequently, it is possible on different game boards to play card games with different suit or value ratio depending on which playing card decks are chosen for this or that board.
The game board «C» has 9 vertical lines of squares. One of these lines is line of colorless squares, assigned for jokers.
The set of jokers consists of 12 playing cards, per 4 cards for each deck. Jokers are correlated with decks by their appearance, which must be the same as for this and that deck. Maximum up to 4 jokers can be added to each deck. Jokers have no suits. Zeros are placed instead of this jokers values. Joker playing cards have/do not have crosses (on the face or on the back), which mark that these jokers belong to proportional groups inside of related deck.

In general, players can use three game boards and three playing card decks for different card games. Each player can play by his own deck or by his own proportional group of cards from any deck. He has possibility to distinguish his own playing cards from these ones of opponents. It gives opportunity to play other games, which differ from well-known card games.
