An abstract game lover from China.
Strings of Suits(同花串): A gomuku-like combinatorial game. It's my first design, not very interesting, but maybe a good start. I decided to make it when I found there was no combinatorial game for Decktet.
Tet-Gow: A trick-taking game inspired by an old Chinese Dominoes game called Tien-Gow(天九). It is a little bit weired that only suits are used to decide the order of the cards. Maybe more experimental than playable.
Chinese-Dominoes contains 32 tiles. There is no Blank in Chinese-Dominioes, and the combinations don't occur with equal frequency, which is a little bit similiar to Decktet. So I think it'll be interesting to adapt some Chinese-Dominoes games to the standard Decktet, with the 6 suits representing 1~6 on the tiles. Hope that more features (ranks, types) can be used in the future.
Mini Decktet (BGG link): An alternate card-design for mini cards (445*635 mm or 1.75*2.5 in) with enlarges suit-symbols. Preview (BGG link)
- The deck is suitable for games where cards are laid out on the table, such as Jacynth, Magnate and Thricewise: with the mini size, it won't take up too much space; and with enlarged suit-symbols, it'll be easier to recognize the suits.
- The deck is NOT suitable for games in which players need to hold a lot of cards in hand, such as Ace Trump, or you may find it hard to recognize the suits.
