+# Instructions
+
+In this exercise, you will simulate a game very similar to the classic card game **Camicia**.
+Your program will receive the initial configuration of two players' decks and must simulate the game until it ends (or detect that it will never end).
+
+## Rules
+
+- The deck is split between **two players**.
+  The player's cards are read from left to right, where the leftmost card is the top of the deck.
+- A round consists of both players playing at least one card.
+- Players take turns placing the **top card** of their deck onto a central pile.
+- If the card is a **number card** (2-10), play simply passes to the other player.
+- If the card is a **payment card**, a penalty must be paid:
+  - **J** → opponent must pay 1 card
+  - **Q** → opponent must pay 2 cards
+  - **K** → opponent must pay 3 cards
+  - **A** → opponent must pay 4 cards
+- If the player paying a penalty reveals another payment card, that player stops paying the penalty.
+  The other player must then pay a penalty based on the new payment card.
+- If the penalty is fully paid without interruption, the player who placed the **last payment card** collects the central pile and places it at the bottom of their deck.
+  That player then starts the next round.
+- If a player runs out of cards and is unable to play a card (either while paying a penalty or when it is their turn), the other player collects the central pile.
+- The moment when a player collects cards from the central pile is called a **trick**.
+- If a player has all the cards in their possession after a trick, the game **ends**.
+- The game **enters a loop** as soon as the decks are identical to what they were earlier during the game, **not** counting number cards!
+
+## Examples

+A small example of a match that ends.

+- Using the input, simulate the game following the rules above.
+- Determine the following information regarding the game:
+  - **Status**: `"finished"` or `"loop"`
+  - **Cards**: total number of cards played throughout the game
+  - **Tricks**: number of times the central pile was collected

+# Introduction
+
+One rainy afternoon, you sit at the kitchen table playing cards with your grandmother.
+The game is her take on [Camicia][bmn].
+
+At first it feels like just another friendly match: cards slapped down, laughter across the table, the occasional victorious grin from Nonna.
+But as the game stretches on, something strange happens.
+The same cards keep cycling back.
+You play card after card, yet the end never seems to come.
+
+You start to wonder.
+_Will this game ever finish?
+Or could we keep playing forever?_
+
+Later, driven by curiosity, you search online and to your surprise you discover that what happened wasn't just bad luck.
+You and your grandmother may have stumbled upon one of the longest possible sequences!
+Suddenly, you're hooked.
+What began as a casual game has turned into a quest: _how long can such a game really last?_
+_Can you find a sequence even longer than the one you played at the kitchen table?_
+_Perhaps even long enough to set a new world record?_
+
+And so, armed with nothing but a deck of cards and some algorithmic ingenuity, you decide to investigate...
