Nice. It would be handy if future versions had a list in the beginning of not only the type of game, but also how many players. I often find myself picking the game based on the number of players first and other criteria second.

Will you update this as more games are added? I ask because I'm very much enjoying Frogger (which I recently translated)...

There are only minor changes since v1.2.

You might restart page numbering at the beginning of each game, so that people could just print out ones they wanted or just reprint ones that had changed (when there was an update).

I think that this is a great idea. I own the Decktet book but bought me a DINA A5 folder for additional or updated game rules.

Matthieu, do you need help, i.e. for checking which rules did change?

Setup
Decide arbitrarily who will deal the first hand. In subsequent hands, the player on the dealer’s left becomes the new dealer.

Deal the entire basic deck out evenly to players. Three players will get 12 cards each; four players will get 9 each. The player on the dealer’s left starts bidding by calling either a suit, top or bottom. If a suit is called, then that will be the trump suit for the hand. If top or
bottom is called, then that determines how cards will be read for the hand. In a top hand, the topmost of the two suit symbols determines the suit of a number card. In a bottom hand, the bottommost suit symbol does.

Example: In a top hand, the 8 Wyrms-Knots is a Wyrm card. In a bottom
hand, it is a Knot card.

[missing text]

Continuing around the table clockwise, players must bid a number of tricks that they think they will be able to take. Once all players’ bids have been recorded, the player who bid first selects a card
from their hand to lead the first trick.

The next player, clockwise around the table, must then declare a trump suit (if the first player called TOP or BOTTOM) or TOP or BOTTOM (if the first player called a trump suit. After this call, it will have been decided both how suits will be read (top or bottom) and which suit is trump.

The rules for chicane's setup are missing a sentence or two.



It seems to be missing this from the Wiki:

Hold your breath a little bit longer, there's a version 1.6.1 coming soon. The rules for Magnate were missing two figures, and Varg Bid was modified (in the wiki) the day after I submitted version 1.6...

Thank you *very* much for your work on this!

If it isn't too much too ask: Would it be possible to add an alphabetical list of content to the file with the entries linked to the actual pages? Finding specific rules would be so much easier... Of course it would be even better if the game entries on the other two lists (category and # of players) were links as well.

And regarding the layout: The black rectangles with the name of the games on the side are a very good idea, only they look a little too close to the text. I guess you planned them to be reading marks that can be seen on the border on the printed book. But in that case, I don't understand why there is a white border beneath them and the page's edge. Shouldn't the black rectangle reach out unto the edge, so the final cut of the book will show the black from the book's side later?

Finally, maybe I missed it, but otherwise it would be nice if the next release (if there will be one) could carry it's version number somewhere, so it would be easier to see which one is the latest file version on your reading device if you don't print it to paper.

Do you mean links inside the PDF file? Since the booklet is meant to be printed, I thought it wouldn't make any sense.

The idea here was to be able to flip thourhg the book and find quickly the games in alphabetical order. Putting the black tabs on the edge of the paper isn't going to help regarding the viewing-the-book-from-the-edge affair, because for most games the rules are short (a few pages) and there are too many tabs in different length to see anything.

Yay! And it has linked lists of contents. Thank you soooo much!
