Gameplay: Deduction, Bluffing, and Wrestling Mayhem

Maskmen is all about figuring out the hidden strength order of six masked wrestlers. Here's the core concept:

1. Unknown Strengths: At the start of the game, nobody knows the true strength ranking of the six wrestler types. The wrestlers are represented by different card suits/symbols.
2. Playing Wrestlers: On your turn, you play wrestler cards from your hand, following one of two crucial rules:
   • Undetermined Wrestler: If the wrestler type you're playing hasn't had its strength determined yet, you must play one more card than the previous player. This establishes a potential strength relationship (e.g., if you play three "Red Mask" cards after someone played two "Blue Mask" cards, Red Mask might be stronger than Blue Mask).
   • Known Wrestler: If the wrestler type you're playing has had its strength determined (relative to at least one other wrestler), you must play the exact same number of cards as the previous player.
3. Deduction and Bluffing: As the game progresses, you'll start to deduce the strength relationships between the wrestlers based on how many cards players are able and willing to play. But be careful! Players can bluff, playing cards as if they're stronger than they really are, trying to trick their opponents.
4. Running Out of Cards: The first player to get rid of all their cards in hand triggers the round end.
5. Revealing True Strength.
6. Scoring: Players score points based on how well they played their wrestlers, with stronger wrestlers earning more points. The wrestler cards and the strength markers are used for scoring.
7. Multiple Rounds: The game likely plays over multiple rounds, with the player accumulating the most points becoming the ultimate wrestling promoter!
