Playing
Usually the player with the Unter of Hearts leads; sometimes the Unter of Leaves is used (hence names like Grünunteransetzen). In clockwise order, players then attempt to 'build' onto the first card by laying next to it the next higher or lower card in suit sequence i.e. the second player would play either the Ober of Hearts or the Ten of Hearts. If a player cannot build in the same suit, they may lay another Unter, above or below the first, in suit order i.e. the U above the U or the U below the U.[5] If they cannot build on an existing suit sequence or on the existing Unters, they must pass and, in a 2-hand game, draw another card from the talon.[6]
The player who is first to shed all their cards is the winner.[6]

Buurnleggen
In North Germany there is a game called Buurnleggen (Bauernlegen i.e. Jack-laying). It is described as a simple card game in which a Jack is placed on the table and players complete the rest of the suit before and after it. A player with no suitable card, but with another Jack, may start a new row. The winner is the first to shed all cards held.[7]
