Who owns the rights for an old card game?

Hello!

I would like to create an app for iOS with a card game, that hasn't yet seen an app-release. It's something I really miss, because it's a card game I love. But what I was wondering was, who owns the rights for all those classic card games that we all know?

Thank you!

You can look up the current trademark holder online.

GFV, you can look up the card game on pagat.com. If the card game is so old that its inventor died over 75 years
ago (or something like that), then the game may be in the public domain. Why don't you tell us the name of the
card game?
