'''Kusyeke kherang''' ([[Baphian language|Baphian]]: ''kusyeke kherang'', lit. 'shark food', [[Kzmr language|Kzmr]]: '''kshkhi'') is a four-player card game in the [[w:Rummy|rummy]] family popularly played in much of [[Ukilen]], particularly the former states of the Baphian Democratic Union. It was most likely developed in [[Baphia]] during the late 19th century, but has since spread to many parts of the world. It is played with a large deck consisting of 212 cards.

The element cards are named after the six Baphian classical elements, and are able to form sequences based on their position in the elemental cycle, with moon able to 'wrap around' to sun. There are four copies of each. The order of the cards is as follows:

The winning player is initially awarded 12 points, which is then compounded with any initial additive points known as counters (Baphian: ''zëdeshis'', Kzmr: ''sdnsi''). Next, this number is multiplied by a factor determined by the number of augmentations (Baphian: ''jecyusaseshis'', Kzmr: ''bdkšnsi''). This factor stems from a sequence of multiples of powers of six – each power is multiplied by 1, 2, and 3. As 1 augmentation is equivalent to a point multiplier of 2, the sequence is as follows:
