About Rook Requiem, from BoardGameGeek:

Every soul needs a guide. Usher spirits to the afterlife in this spooky trick-taking game for three to five players. Face off in a strategic duel for ghosts, each with unique modifiers you need the most. But beware of the powerful Rook lurking in each player's hand, for they have the ultimate power to upset your plans. How to Play 1. Determine Trump 2. Deal Cards 3. Reveal a Ghost 4. Play Tricks - You must follow suit - High card wins, unless trump is played - Highest trump wins the trick, unless a Rook is played. Rooks have unique powers and copy the previously played suit. 5.

Count Scores and Reset – The Highest Score after 3 Rounds wins!
