Rumpel is a card game, that is native to the Danube region from Regensburg to Linz,[2] but is played especially in the region of Hauzenberg in the German county of Passau in Bavaria.[3] Mala describes a version with 8 or 12 contracts from a menu of 29 called Großer Rumpel.[2] It is a descendant of the old Austrian student's game of Quodlibet.[3]
