What the tool counts
The reference assigns J=3, 9=2, A=1 and 10=1, with the other playing ranks worth zero. Across four suits, the 32 playing cards contain twenty-eight card points.
Keep bonuses separate
Knight’s Cave lists an optional last-trick bonus separately. Our calculator adds only selected card values. It does not assume that your table uses that option or add a point because of the game’s name.
A useful check
Select the complete deck to see twenty-eight, then clear it and compare a smaller selection with your own count. Neither total is a bidding recommendation or an automatic settlement.
