I could probably do a bunch of internet searches and slowly figure out the game! I am not familiar with trick-taking games. I also did not know that a standard set of playing cards is a French set! So, maybe I know less than the average nerd gamer, I am not sure. It might be helpful to create a cheat sheet or link to a site that explains all the basics. I think your game is probably pretty good (the theme is well done!), it is fair to assume a foundation of knowledge that I just don't happen to have.
