This deck is under construction. Anyone is welcome to contribute - check the talk page to find out more.

A card game inspired by the web novel A Practical Guide to Evil : check it out here, it's so good !

  • This deck is still only a draft. Suggestion are welcome if you know the Guideverse.

Rules

Dvorak

Dvorak is played entirely with cards, and there are just two types of card - Things and Actions. When you play a Thing card, it goes onto the table in front of you and stays there, usually having a useful effect while it remains in play; when you play an Action card, it does whatever it does and goes to a discard pile.

Take the deck of cards, shuffle it, and deal five cards to each player (which they hold in their hand where other players can't see). The rest of the cards go in the middle of the table as a face-down draw pile, and whenever a card is discarded or destroyed, it goes into a face-up discard pile.

Starting with a random player, you take turns in order. A turn consists of:

  • Drawing the top card from the draw pile. (If the draw pile's empty, shuffle the discard pile and turn it over to make a new draw pile.)
  • Playing up to two cards from your hand. You can play one Thing and one Action per turn (or just one of those, or no cards at all).
  • Checking your hand size; if you have more than five cards, discard down to five.

The game continues until somebody meets the deck's victory condition.
