  • Concise instructions to quickly start your games
Format: Paperback
I love that each game has a 2 (sometimes 3) page spread. The first page is a brief overview of the game, including difficulty, duration, objective, and a picture showing how the cards are laid out. The second page has a concise "how to deal" and short "variations," but most of the page is dedicated to "how to play," as it should. It's great that the instructions are to the point, so you can quickly start playing the game. The only drawback is that the book's binding doesn't allow it to easily open flat, but is a minor issue. I got this book as a gift for a retired couple who love playing card games and I think it would be perfect for them. The font is a good size. The information is presented in a clean layout, with a good variety of game types and difficulty. The colors are vibrant without being distracting. ... show more

  • Terribly written, some games with incorrect directions.
Format: Paperback
OK, but not well written. Randomly picked the pyramid solitaire, and the instructions they provide are incorrect. Not sure who wrote this book, but I'm thinking they've never played any of the games themselves.

  • Many games to choose from.
Format: Paperback
Since my husband and I don't really go out a lot, the book gives us many interesting card games to pass time and keep the OLD BRAIN working

  • Beautiful and useful reference book
Format: Paperback
This book is beautifully designed and well thoughout. Ramsdell includes so many useful details and the background of the games. My husband and I have pulled this out to learn new games for us two to play. My only criticism is that sometimes there's one tiny detail not mentioned that becomes a question of what to do with said card...but that may also be because I have a crap memory for card games in general and therefore little common sense. Overall - I think this is a handy staple to have on your coffee table or shelf. If you're ever in an argument about which way the rules go on a game, this should settle things once and for all! Full disclosure - I received an advance copy of this book a long time ago since the author is an old colleague and friend of mine. I am a bad friend who never got around to do the original review so I hope this makes up for it. I'm so very impressed with Dustin's work! ... show more

  • Very comprehensive, but with quick and efficient instructions and visuals
Format: Kindle
This book is broken up into two main parts (if you have a friend to play with or you're playing cards by yourself). The visuals and instructions are very easy to understand especially since there is a quick guide of terms in the beginning. I often find that I'm familiar-ish with a lot of card games, but would have a hard time remembering all the details on how to play since I'm usually with others that play card games more often. My partner and his parents LOVE playing card games and I'm telling him to bring this on their cruise so they can relax and browse through it and perhaps learn some new games! I love the cute little additions like little bits of fun trivia mixed in. It kept it fun while browsing through it initially. Super fun to have around! As an additional note, I was provided with an advance copy by the publisher :) ... show more
