L’Hombre is a game played today in Denmark which is a descendent of the very old Spanish game ‘Hombre’. A version of the original Spanish ‘Ombre’ is still played in Spain today under the name ‘Tresillo’. The game of L’Hombre retains many of the major distinctive features of Ombre, but the scoring has been simplified, and some additional contracts have also been added.
