A set of cards that will lead to some truly varied play! Add a bit of mathematics and such to your next game of Infinite Dvorak!

Special Rules

There are special rules in addition to normal Infinite Dvorak Rules to help better implement variables.

  1. All variable's values start as 1.
  2. Whenever a card defines a value for a variable, that change will happen instantly.
  3. If an action defines a variable, that change will happen once.
    1. If a thing defines a variable, the most recently played thing will define that variable.
    2. If a thing that previously defined a variable is brought out of play, then the next most recently played thing will define that variable.
