There are already a lot of variants implemented, including "Escoba" and "Scopone Scientifico", as you can see here: https://en.doc.boardgamearena.com/Gamehelpscopa
and in the game options.

As Scopa is implemented, I think it would be very interesting to have "Escoba" (Spanish version) implemented to.

Te core mechanic is fundamentally the same, but there are some differences that make it, IMHO, a more interesting game.

In Escoba, you only capture cards if the you sum up to fifteen with the card you just played and as many cards y the table as you need. You can choose the cards if more than one possibility occurs. The rules for make an "escoba" remain the same, you take all the cards in a single play.

We play with an Spanish deck (without 8,9, 10) and for this, every card has a value equal to its number, excepto for the Sota (8) Caballo (9) Rey (10).

When it comes to scoring, each "scoba" is woth one point. Having the most number of cards, the most number of "oros" (gold), the "7 de velos" (7 of gold) are also one point each.

Just as a suggestion.

That is exactly how it works in the Italian version of the game

It would be nice if you can display the current number of cards you have taken (if you want even more info the current number of coins taken would be nice too). That way players can decide if they need to focus more or less on cards, or focus more on coins, prima, or otherwise. Thanks

That would be against the rules.
