Germany has a long tradition in card games, and it is recorded that playing first entered the German-speaking world in the late 1370s. The earliest traditional German poker became standard around 1450, with four suits – acorns, leaves, hearts and bells – and influenced the design of modern poker.
Scat is a card game played by a trio similar to "Landlord". Scat has a total of 32 cards, and the four suits are plum, spades, spades and diamonds, but each suit has only four number cards of 7, 8, 9 and 10 and four letters of B, D, K and A. One player takes twelve cards, two defensive players each take ten cards, and the defending player cooperates with each other but does not know each other's cards. Scat is recognized as an intangible cultural heritage in Germany. In December 2016, the German Commission for UNESCO listed Scat in the Federal Register of Intellectual Heritage.
In order to enrich the entertainment life of the vast number of officers and soldiers, the propaganda organs of the Third Reich printed information on weapons knowledge, cultural propaganda, historical events and other information on playing cards and distributed them to the troops. It can be said that some modern enterprises have printed safety production and corporate culture on playing cards.
Protracted wars are brutal, and proper entertainment is extremely important for the physical and mental health of soldiers. During the rest period, fighting a landlord with your comrades can also bring a lot of happiness. I hope that the model of War Park will bring the same joy to players as playing cards to the German army!
No matter how cruel the war, in the days of the ceasefire, you still have to learn to enjoy the good of life.
