About the game
Escoba del 15 or just Escoba, Escova and Escopa, is the Spanish and Portuguese variant of the Italian fishing card game Scopa, which means "broom", a name that refers to the situation in the game where all of the cards from the board are "swept" in one turn. The game is usually played with a deck of traditional Spanish playing cards, called naipes.Information from Marquoir’s game database, which cross-checks several open sources. Spotted a mistake?
