Tricky tricks - trick-taking and other games (Topic Discussion)

Growing up in Germany, I started playing traditional trick-taking
games like Skat or Doppelkopf from a relatively young age. I'm
used to the idea of suits, trump, following suit, taking tricks,
gleaning information from what cards others play and much more.
Traditional trick-taking games sort of have their own language.
So I love to see modern games developing this mechanism further
and incorporating it into other mechanisms, creating completely
new game experiences.
