What is "Ninety-nine"?
Ninety-nine is a card game typically played by two to six players using a standard 52-card deck. The goal is to be the first to reach exactly 99 points, but the game requires careful play to avoid going over this total. Players take turns playing one card at a time, and each card has a value that is added to the running total. Number cards are worth their face value, face cards are worth 10 points, and Aces are worth 1 point. If the total goes over 99, the player who caused it loses the round. Special cards, like the 9s, allow players to subtract from the total, offering a strategic advantage. The game continues until one player reaches exactly 99 points.
