having been one of the three most common card games in south tyrol, together with stichwatten and labbieten, trischettn is nowadays under threat of dying out. nevertheless there are moves to revive it by teaching trischettn alongside other traditional south tyrolean card games. it is closely related to the italian game of tresette, albeit played with different packs and a different card ranking, "treschetten" being south tyrolese for 'playing tresette'.
