What is a "rook"?
A rook is a large, black passerine bird from the crow family. They are known for their distinctive appearance, with glossy black feathers and a prominent bill. Rooks are highly social birds and often gather in large flocks, creating communal roosts in trees. They are intelligent and resourceful, using their beaks to probe the ground for insects, earthworms, and other invertebrates. Rooks are also opportunistic feeders, and their diet can include grains, fruits, small mammals, and carrion. They build nests in tall trees, often in colonies known as "rookeries." Rooks are known for their harsh, cawing calls and are commonly found in agricultural areas, grasslands, and woodland habitats throughout Europe and parts of Asia.

What is "Rook"?
Rook is a trick-taking card game typically played by four players in two teams of two, using a special 56-card deck. The game is played with four suits, and the Rook card, which is a unique card in the deck, serves as the highest trump card. The goal is to win tricks and score points by capturing valuable cards. The game begins with a bidding phase, where players bid on how many points their team will try to earn, and the highest bidder decides the trump suit or chooses to play without a trump suit. Players then take turns playing one card at a time, with the highest card in the leading suit or trump suit winning the trick. Points are earned based on the cards won, especially special cards like the Rook card, which is worth the most.
