Easy to learn and quick to play, The Great Dalmuti is a social card game based on the premise that life isn't fair.
The colourfully illustrated card deck consists of 80 cards: 12 twelves, 11 elevens, 10 tens, and so on down to one Great Dalmuti card, as well as two Jesters. The faster you get rid of the cards in your hand, the higher your social class will be in the following hand, and having a higher social standing has definite advantages in the game.
Watch out - the last player to run out of cards has to be the Greater Peon, the lowest rank of all, who has to shuffle, deal, and collect the cards, as well as tend to the needs of the Greater Dalmuti!
