About the game
Kille (pronounced /ɕɪlːɛ/ or /kɪlːɛ/), also called Harlequin, Cambio, Campio, Kambio or Kamfio, is a game played with special playing cards, dating from a medieval French gambling game. In Sweden, the game had its heyday during the 1750s, but it is one of the oldest card games still played.Information from Marquoir’s game database, which cross-checks several open sources.
