Jass is highly popular throughout Switzerland and is regarded as the national card game. During the countless games played over the course of its long tradition, the Jass cards have taken on the magical air of cosy evenings spent in good company. Whether you play it at the regulars' table in your local pub, at home in the warmth of your living room when it's raining cats and dogs outside, or on a long train journey to pass the time, Jass is an enjoyable and exciting game that brings people together. It's fun to play and helps to relieve stress and boredom, and it's also a great way to get your grey matter working. A good hand is no guarantee that you will win a game – you also need good powers of concentration and lots of experience. Careful observation of your partner's and, even more importantly, your opponents' body language is vital. Playing Jass teaches the players to perceive complex interactions and helps you to better understand, even empathise with, your opponents. Jass is popular in even the remotest corners of the country, and is enjoyed in its various forms by old, young, men, women and children alike.
