1000 Blank White Cards is a public domain card game, which allows the players to make the cards during the course of the game. Before play, players seed the deck with their own invented cards. These cards are shuffled in with blank cards to form a deck of about 60-90 cards.
Basically, the game follows "Draw 1, Play 1". Most cards have a point value of +1000 to -1000, and players may play a card on themselves, on another player, or on all players. If a player draws one of the blank cards during the course of play, they may craft a new card out of it, often countering other cards which have already been played.
Cards usually have a title, a picture, with a score and/or rule. Usually the picture, being a quick sketch by a non-artist, comes out as a stick figure. That's okay. This adds to the humor value, especially when another player makes a "Stick-Figure Genocide" card. Cards can represent anything the designer wants to feature, from serious to absurd. (However, usually cards tend toward the latter.)
The game ends and points are tabulated after the deck is exhausted, and the winner is the player with the most points. Then, players lay out all of the cards face-up for the "epilogue," which allows players to choose the best cards to seed the deck for the next game.
