The Decktet

The Decktet is unlike ordinary poker and tarot decks, meaning that you can do different things with it. It's a deck of cards with suits, ranks, and named images.

This is two complete Decktets. Each includes the 36-card basic deck: single-suited Aces, double-suited ranks 2 through 9, and single-suited Crowns. It also includes all the extended deck cards: the Excuse, the triple-suited Pawns, and the Courts.

These decks have the filigree card back. Since they have the same back, you can shuffle them together as a double deck. But one of the two decks has an ornamental squiggle in the corner of each card, so it is just as easy to separate them again.

Rules for Thricewise, Nonesuch, Bharg Deluxe, and Adaman are included. Rules for other games are available on The Decktet Wiki and in The Decktet Book.
