What is a "trick-taking game"?

A trick-taking game is a type of card game where players compete to win "tricks," which are rounds in which each player plays one card, and the player with the highest-ranking card, based on the rules of the game, wins the trick. The goal is to win as many tricks as possible or to achieve a specific number of tricks, depending on the rules. Examples of trick-taking games include Bridge, Spades, and Hearts. These games often involve strategy, skill, and sometimes luck, as players must decide which cards to play based on the cards already played and their objectives.
