Simple Game [Normal 52 Deck]

[3XXXDDD]

Both Players draw X Cards. Draw X Cards after each round
Black are positive numbers
Red are negative numbers

Flip over the top-card of the deck per round.

Each Player may choose to "Capture" that card. They do this by adding and or subtracting the cards in their hand until they reach that number. However this done in turns,

Flipped 7
Player A Plays +3
Player B Plays -2
Player A Plays + 4

Player A then adds that card to their Victory Pile. The summed cards are discarded.

Players may also choose to "Pass" instead of Capture. When a Player Pass, the other player may attempt to capture that card without interruptions. If not the card is discarded.

Victory Points are determined by the total sum of each players Victory Pile.

*All Numbers outside of the cards in each players hand are Positive.

What do face cards do?
Do the just count for 11 12 and 13 or do they have some sort of special abilities?

It could be a cool way to draft on 1vs.1 match ups. only those are the cost of the cards and on your turn those are negative and on his are positive or something.

Hmm
They don't count for any number but each one should have a separate effect:

Ace of Hearts -
Ace of Diamonds -
Ace of Spades -
Ace of Clubs -
Jack of Hearts -
Jack of Diamonds -
Jack of Spades -
Jack of Clubs -
Queen of Hearts -
Queen of Diamonds -
Queen of Spades -
Queen of Clubs -
King of Hearts -
King of Diamonds -
King of Spades -
King of Clubs -

So 16 Total Trick Cards.

Thoughts:
Double All Numbers
Half All Numbers
+1 to All Numbers
-1 to All Numbers
Reverse All Numbers (-7 is now +7, +7 is now -7)
Cancel all Trick Cards
Change the Target Card from X Card in discard pile

Also an extra addition, based on the suit of the target, the type of sum changes

Spades is Addition
Clubs is Multiplication
Hearts is Divide
Diamonds is Subtraction.
