Camicia is a card game of pure luck for two players. It is the Italian version of Beggar My Neighbour, and like that game, it is a children's game. The American game Egyptian Ratscrew is also related. The game is played with an Italian deck of 40 cards in which the suits are ignored. There are two types of cards: aces, two and threes are attack cards, the other are normal (cannon-fodder) cards. Research Camicia
