Davoserjazz is a simple, Danish compendium game using playing cards for three to seven people. It comprises 6 subgames, the first five of which are reverse games and the last one is a shedding game. Its name is also spelt Davoserjas, Davoserjass and Davoserjaz and means "Davos Jass" although it has no connexion with the Swiss resort of Davos nor with the Swiss card game genre of Jass.
Davoserjazz is played in many variations, and both the number of rounds and which cards are penalty cards in reverse games can vary.
