Western players might be familiar with a reskinned version called President, which itself was adapted from Daifugou or the equivalent Chinese card games. There's also some brand name variants like The Great Dalmuti and Dilbert's Corporate Shuffle.
(Swedish used to have a... uh... not-so-politically-correct name for it too.)

Where I most recently played it we called it deuces but that's actually the name for a completely different solo game. The revolution rule was not in play, and given the meta we developed around playing our game, wouldn't have been an efficient way to play either.
Different names used for the same game in different cultures is a fascinating topic in general. If I remember right, parts of China call Hearts "Tractor", though that may also be a deprecated term now.
I've had enough...
I'm going home.Nobody told me about this Revolution houserule before...
They were playing Daifugou/Tycoon, Ruleshi was leading, and then a Four of a Kind happened which triggered the Revolution houserule and turned Ruleshi's strong cards into garbage.
