Description: Cards and instructions are in like new condition. The box shows minor storage wear. This is a complete first edition of the 1994 card game The Great Dalmuti by Wizards of the Coast and designed by Richard Garfield. It's a light party card game where players gain status by going out first. The 80-card deck contains cards ranked from 12 to 1, along with two Jesters. Each card bears a number, which is not only its rank but also tells you how many of that card exist in the deck. In other words, there are twelve 12s, eleven 11s, four 4s, and a single card ranked 1. The lower the number, the better the rank. The deck is dealt out to all players, and the object is to get rid of your cards as fast as possible. The hand begins with one person playing one or more cards to the center of the table. The cards played must all be of the same rank (although Jesters are wild and may be played with any other cards). Each player, in turn, must now either play the same number of cards of a better rank or pass. Play continues around the table until everyone has passed; at that point, the cards are cleared, and whoever played the last set of cards leads the next round. After everyone has gone out, the players are ranked. For example, the person who first got rid of all his cards becomes The Great Dalmuti. Players change seat positions to represent the new hierarchy and begin another round. The Great Dalmuti is generally played for many rounds. This game is a commercial version of the traditional playing card game President (based on the Chinese game Zheng Shang Yu). The recommended age range for players is 8 years and up. If you're a fan of card games, you'll love this game with its unique gameplay and fantastic graphics.
