ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

As-Nas

As-nas is a card game that people used to play a long, long time ago in a country called Iran. It's kind of like poker, but with a few differences.

The game has a deck of 25 cards, and each card has a picture of something on it. Some have pictures of kings, some have pictures of warriors, and some have pictures of animals.

To play the game, everyone sits around a table and each person gets some cards from the deck. Then, they take turns trying to make the best hand of cards they can.

But instead of having poker hands like "three of a kind" or "flush," in as-nas, the hands are based on the pictures on the cards. For example, if you have two cards with the same picture of a king, you might have a "pair of kings" hand.

The game also has some special rules for certain cards. For example, the "buz(musk)" card can act as any other card in the hand, so it's kind of like a wild card.

Overall, as-nas is a fun game that people used to play a long time ago in Iran. It's kind of like poker, but with different rules and pictures on the cards.
