Draw cards to determine the first dealer for the game. Remove the 1’s, 2’s, 3’s and the Rook card to form a 44 card deck. It should also be noted that this rendition plays differently than the modern day 2 player variation included in Hasbro’s instructions for the game. The instructions here on GameRules will hold true to the original 1914 publication by not including the Rook card. One interesting thing to note is that the Rook card was not used in the standard rules for this game. Parker (of the Parker Bros.) wrote the rules himself. Rook for Two uses the 1914 publishing of the rules as its source. OBJECTIVE OF ROOK FOR TWO: Be the first player to 150 points or more NUMBER OF PLAYERS: 2 players NUMBER OF CARDS: 44 Rook playing cards RANK OF CARDS: (low) 4 – 14 (high) TYPE OF GAME: Trick taking AUDIENCE: Adults
