what is a trick-taking game?

It is a game in which different cards have different values. Players display their cards one at a time--an action referred to as a trick. Of the cards displayed, that with the highest value wins, that is to say, takes the trick--they player to whom the highest value card belongs collects the cards displayed by all the other players on that trick. This action is repeated for the number of cards held by the player. Look up the rules of bridge, hearts, spades, etc. to get a fuller description of a trick taking game.

Would this game be good for an adolescent-aged kid (or an adult) as kind of an introduction to Bridge? I found bridge hard to learn. Would this help?

Yes. With a clear rulebook with good examples this game will be easier to learn. Plus there are only 3 suits and two players, so less to track overall. It will take some time to get good at the game though so don't get frustrated.

Whats the difference between the basic and premium pack?

First I've heard of it. I even checked BGG and there is nothing about a premium addition. Probably just a seller trying to make his product sound better to get your busines.

What are the tokens for, I have no board in this set?

Keeping score. There isn't a board, you just use them to track your score.

Halfway between a game of traditional Playing Cards and something like Love Letter..

勝ちすぎず負けすぎないを狙うトリックテイキングゲームゲーム

勝ちすぎたらダメ、カード全11種中6種が手札と切り札を交換、負けてもリードになるといった効果が書かれた二人用トリックテイキングゲームです。内容物はとても簡素でルールブックとなるテキスト(数ページ)とカード40枚程、得点チップのみ。全文英語ですがトリック数とスコアの早見表がついていて、あとはカードの効果を手書きで横に置いておけばそこまで言語で苦しむことは無いと思います。勝ちすぎず負けすぎずを狙うのか、最初からずっと負け続けるのかを判断しつつプレイするのはなかなかに楽しくておすすめです。

Muy divertido y competitivo.

Compre este juego para jugar con mi novia y nos pareció excelente, nos llevamos un buen rato de diversion, pueden ser partidas muy rápidas pero bastante entretenidas. Inicialmente nos costo un poco de trabajo entender las reglas pero ya comprendiéndolo el juego es muy simple sin mencionar que el arte de las cartas es hermoso.
