Dvorak - Get a pen and draw a card.

Welcome to Dvorak

Dvorak is a card game where all of the cards start out blank. Players choose a theme, make up enough cards to get started, shuffle and deal, and start playing. If anyone has a good idea for a card during the game, it gets shuffled into the deck.

You can use the Dvorak system as a skeleton for making a solid and standalone card game, you can play it as an experimental or cut-throat Nomic, you can use it to kill half an hour drawing pictures and forcing your friends to perform forfeits, you can throw together a card game based on your favourite film or sport or in-joke, or you can even build your own collectible card game from the ground up.

You can also play the card games that other people have come up with, over the years - just pick something from the deck archive to print out and cut into a deck of cards, or play the game online.

The Dvorak Wiki

In an attempt to bring Dvorak properly into the 21st century, we've moved everything (including deck lists) to a publicly-editable wiki, to see what happens.

As with the game itself, we're making this up as we go along - feel free to pitch in with suggestions, advice or boring old legwork, in this uncertain time. You can check Special:RecentChanges to see what's been happening recently, and discuss the changes either on the Dvorak mailing list, or the wiki's various talk pages.

Current state of progress

  • All the decks, text content and user comments from the old site have been transferred.
  • There's now a "generate MUSHcode" link on every deck, which points to an external conversion script.
  • There's also a "print this deck" link, leading to a basic reworking of the old deck printing system.
  • It'd be good to pick out the best decks from the archive - join the "star" decks talk page to nominate or second potential candidates.
  • Heady with the power of wiki, some players are creating a new collaborative CCG, with a time-travel theme.
