The rules
Each player gets three private cards. On your turn, play one and declare any rank (ace low). The next player either believes you or challenges. A challenge reveals the played card: a lie loses for the player who played it; a truthful claim loses for the challenger. If believed, play continues; the first empty hand wins after the next player accepts the last card. One phone per player.
